Line diode CDCLD Series

voltagecurrent

Central Semiconductor’s CDCLD series Zero Temperature Coefficient (ZTC) Current Limiting Diodes (ZTC CLDs) are specifically intended for applications requiring constant current regulation, and were designed with a unique process which maintains constant current over a broad temperature range. This Zero Temperature Coefficient feature eliminates the need for additional resistors to compensate for variation in the current limit as a result of changes in temperature. The regulator current values range from 27.5mA to 575mA with a maximum limiting voltage (VL) from 1.5V to 2.0V. Manufactured in the industry standard DPAK surface mount package, these Industry First devices are ideal for high intensity industrial and consumer lighting systems, as well as test/measurement equipment and standard LED applications. Device specifications and curves may be found on the product brief and datasheet. features Constant current range Temperature independance High stability over wide temperature range Nominal current regulation at low voltage input Available in bare die benefits Eliminates need for additional resistors Active current source performance Optimized for heat disspiation
