What else can I help you with?
Which diode have characteristics very close to that of an ideal voltage source?
zener diode
What is material made of a zener diode?
SILICON same as any other diode but with different characteristics
What will a Zener diode do at breakdown voltage?
A Zener Diode will continue to show its breakdown characteristics until it gets fried...for example a 5 volt zener will get fried at a breakdown voltage of about 6 volts..this happens because of the large amount of current flowing through the small diode which unfortunately the diode cannot handle.
What is the function of zener?
zener diode is a revers bias diode which used for voltage regulation.
What is the purpose of the zener diode in a power supply?
to limit the voltage or regulate the same.
Which diode has its characteristics very close to that of an ideal voltagesource.1.zener diode 2.vacuum tube diode 3. crystal diode?
The Zener diode has the characteristics of a constant voltage source.
What is Zener resistance of the Zener diode?
zener resistance of a zener diode is the resistance of the zener diode but which is the resistance of a diode
Reverse characteristics graph of pn junction diode?
what is the difference between reverse characteristics of zener diode and a practical diode ?
Which diode have characteristics very close to that of an ideal voltage source?
zener diode
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.
What is material made of a zener diode?
SILICON same as any other diode but with different characteristics
What is the difference between an ideal zener diode and practical zener diode?
Zener diode is heavily doped pn junction diode.
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 a Zener diode do at breakdown voltage?
A Zener Diode will continue to show its breakdown characteristics until it gets fried...for example a 5 volt zener will get fried at a breakdown voltage of about 6 volts..this happens because of the large amount of current flowing through the small diode which unfortunately the diode cannot handle.
What is V-I characteristics of zener diode?
Work in reverse bias.(breakdown at a particular voltage to keep the volt. constant so used as voltage regulator) same as diode when forward biased.
Does a zener diode acts as a switch?
A zener diode cannot be used as switch.
Who invented the zener diode?
Dr. Clarence Melvin Zener of Southern Illinois University invented the zener diode.
