Can a diode be used as rectifier diode?
yes, diode can be used as rectifier diode to convert ac to dc
Is it pn junction diode used as voltage regulator?
zener diode
What is the difference between p n junction and zener diode?
The difference between the pn-junction diode and the zener diode is that the pn-junction diode is used for rectification while the zener diode is used for rectification and stabilization. Also, the zener diode can function in the breakdown region while the pn-juntion diode can not function in that regime.
Does a zener diode acts as a switch?
A zener diode cannot be used as switch.
Will a zener diode work the same as a germanium diode?
No. An ordinary diode, be it silicon or germanium, conducts in one direction only, whereas a zener diode conducts in both directions, but at different voltages. An ordinary diode is used to rectify, using its forward bias characteristics, while a zener diode is used to regulate, using its reverse bias characteristics.
Can a diode be used as rectifier diode?
yes, diode can be used as rectifier diode to convert ac to dc
What is the function of diode what is the function of diode?
A diode is used primarily as a Rectifier
Can diode be used as rectifier?
yes ofcourse diode can be used as rectifier but it's an uncontrolled rectification.
A device used to display the temperature?
a thermometer thermometer a thermometer
What type of diode is used as a variable capacitor?
varactor diode is a correct answer
Is it pn junction diode used as voltage regulator?
zener diode
What type of diode is a HVR-1X4 diode?
It's a high voltage diode, typically used in microwave ovens.
What is the thermometer used for?
a thermometer is a device that is used to measure temperature.
What is the difference between p n junction and zener diode?
The difference between the pn-junction diode and the zener diode is that the pn-junction diode is used for rectification while the zener diode is used for rectification and stabilization.

Does a zener diode acts as a switch?
A zener diode cannot be used as switch.
What is use of the diode?
The use of the pn diode is for rectification. It can also be used as a switch.
What is the most used thermometer?
