You want to solder a broken zener diode back together with liquid solder?
This is not possible. You must replace the diode.
How does a zener diode work in forward bias?
Like a normal diode............. unless it includes a "back biased" diode to prevent conduction in this mode as is common in zener diodes rated at about 10 volts or more, then it acts as an open circuit.
How much voltage appears across a zener diode when it is forward-biased?
That depends on the zener voltage rating:"low voltage" zeners are just a simple single diode, the zener diode"high voltage" zeners contain 2 back to back diodes in one package, the zener diode and an ordinary diode that is reverse biased when the zener diode is forward biased to block forward conduction of the zener and protect it from overcurrent damage if installed backwards by mistakeThus in "low voltage" zeners when forward biased they will have a normal diode drop (e.g. 0.7V), but "high voltage" zeners when "forward biased" they will act open due to the reverse biased blocking/protection diode in series with the zener.
How is zener diode different from a conventional diode or ideal diode?
zener diode :zener diode operates under reverse bias voltageideal diode :ideal diode operates under forward bias voltage
What will happens if zener diode and resistance are connected in parallel?
If diode is connected in series then current will flow only in one direction. ie. Current flow occurs only when diode is forward biased. ANSWER: It depends are the diodes are connected in series if they are back to back no current will flow if connected in the forward conduction mode then they will conduct.
Can a transistor be obtain by connecting the semiconductor diode back to back?
No.

Where is the drl diode in 97 gmc suburban?
Diode or module??? the module is under the dash straight back from the gas pedal..

What is meaning of diode snap off?
Current snaps back to zero very rapidly

What is the symbol of esaki diode?
The symbol for the esaki diode, also known as the tunnel diode, is similar to the zener diode, except that the two stems on the end of the cathode both point back towards the anode, and they are at 90 degrees instead of 45 degrees. For more information, and a picture, please see the related link below.

ANSWER: It depends are the diodes are connected in series if they are back to back no current will flow if connected in the forward conduction mode then they will conduct.
Difference between a diode and a transistor?
diode is a bipolar device and transister is a three terminal device a diode will conduct any time there is a positive voltage from cathode[-] to anode[+] following an exponetial curve of the diode. a transistor can control the same exponential curves by a voltage applied to the base.
Can a diode be used as rectifier diode?
yes, diode can be used as rectifier diode to convert ac to dc
What does the diode trio do?
The old delco diode trio takes the 3 phase rectified voltage from the rectifier bridge and and joins it back into one single phase; readys it for the voltage regulator.
