We always enjoy [w2aew’s] videos, and his latest on zener diodes is no exception. In it, he asserts that all Zener diodes are not created equal. Why? You’ll have to watch the video below to find out.

A tutorial on the Zener Diode and how to use them as voltage clamps, voltage regulators, and how to create audio distortion circuits. The zener diode works as if there are two regular diodes in ...

The Zener diode leads if directly polarized, as a typical diode. Unlike a typical diode, it also leads if reverse-polarized, but only if the voltage threshold (Vz) is exceeded Like the typical diode, ...

Zener diode is a diode that keeps the voltage applied to its pins constant. When zener diodes are connected to the circuit in the right direction, it works like a normal silicon diode. In other words, ...

Abstract: This paper begins with a discussion of the different modes of operation of a zener diode and continues with a study of its behavior during voltage transient conditions. A critique of the ...

When forward-biased, the Zener diode behaves like a normal silicon diode with PN junction, allowing a current to pass from the anode to the cathode When forward-biased, the Zener diode behaves like a ...
