Hi all,
I have selected a SA20A to try out and test for my own understanding.
I am thinking of the following:
1. Measure VBR by placing resistor in series say 10K at 10V so we get 1mA. Would this give me the break down voltage.
2. The reverse voltage, should not affect any operation of a circuit. I was going to put this across a 12V supply that powers a regulator and opamp circuit and ensure that circuit works fine.
3. Could I check the clamping voltage which is around 30V, by ramping up the voltage so it is greater than 30V? Would my voltage need to change in a certain time period i.e. milli or micro seconds. How could I check this out.
Have I left out any other checks?
Any help would be appreciated.
