Q. The voltage across a zener diode

A
Is constant in forward direction
B
Is constant in reverse direction
C
Is constant in both forward and reverse directions
D
None of the above
Solution:
  • A Zener diode is a silicon semiconductor device that permits current to flow in either a forward or reverse direction.
  • The diode consists of a special, heavily doped p-n junction, designed to conduct in the reverse direction when a certain specified voltage is reached.
  • The Zener diode is less expensive than another diode. This diode can be used in regulate and stabilize the voltage in a circuit. These diodes have a high-performance standard. Control the flowing current.
