Central Semiconductor’s CDCLD series of ZTC Current Limiting Diodes (ZTC CLDs) is specifically designed for applications
requiring a constant current regulation. The ZTC CDCLD series was 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.
The complete range of devices is also available in bare die for space constrained assemblies and module applications.
