6.8V (6V8) 1/4W Zener Diode Set – Signal Regulator Value Pack (10 Piece)

Product Overview

The 6.8V Zener (often labeled 6V8) is a versatile regulator used in feedback loops and protection circuits. It is specifically designed to operate in the Zener breakdown region with high stability and low leakage current. These 1/4 Watt diodes are ideal for small signal processing in telecommunications, consumer electronics, and hobbyist projects. They offer a fast response time to voltage transients, keeping your hardware safe.

Key Features

• 6.8V Zener Voltage: Accurate regulation for specialized DC rails.
• 1/4 Watt (250mW): Compact and efficient for low-power applications.
• 10 Piece Value Set: Perfect for prototyping and repair inventories.
• Sharp Breakdown Point: Ensures fast voltage clamping for safety.
• Easy Axial Mounting: Standard through-hole leads for PCBs and breadboards.

Benefits

Using a 6V8 Zener prevents ‘voltage overshoot’ from reaching sensitive analog-to-digital converters or logic gates. It acts as an affordable insurance policy for your expensive microcontrollers and sensors. This 10-piece pack ensures you always have a replacement ready during your build process. Experience the peace of mind that comes with professional-grade signal regulation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use this for a 5V circuit?
A: Yes, it is often used as a ‘secondary protection’ for 5V circuits, as it won’t interfere with the 5V signal but will clamp anything that rises dangerously toward 7V.
