Pennsylvania State University

Upenn is considered to be one of the hardest universities to get into. you need not only exceptional grades, (4.0) but you need to have great recommendations, activities in schools, community service, and lastly good scores on your SAT (averaging 720) and ACT (averaging 32). Upenn is not an impossible school, but one thing that sets the people who get in and those who do not is their personal qualities and personal statement! If you don't stand out, you won't be admitted! That's the bottom line!

Well...it's not a bad college, but it's not a particularly prestigious one, either. You know, I don't want to insult anyone who went there -- my best friend went there, actually -- but it's not usually somebody's dream college.

Penn State is a very stereotypical American college: you know, one of those colleges where it seems like everybody is either a football player or a cheerleader. Basically, it is a college for people who loved high school so much, that they want to do it all over again for four more years.

Penn State University's total enrollment in 2009--10 was approximately 94,300 across its 24 campuses and on-line through its World Campus. The university offers more than 160 majors among all its campuses.

Penn State University is ranked among the top fifteen public universities nationally and is considered to be one of America's Public Ivy universities, which recognizes top public research universities in the United States.

Annual enrollment at the University Park campus totals more than 44,000 graduate and undergraduate students, making it one of the largest universities in the United States.

The main climate region for sydney, Australia is Temperate Marine, and the regionwith in it is in the Marine west coast wich has mild winters and cool summers with moderate precipitation all year.

Zener diodes operate like any other diode in reverse bias, they just have the point where they breakdown more carefully controlled, and usually lower than the typical ~50V for a standard silicon diode. The process by which most diodes (with breakdowns larger than a few volts) operate under reverse biases strong enough to cause breakdown is called "Avalanching".

Avalanching is where the reverse biasing is strong enough that the electric field between the positive and negative terminals grows to a point where the electrons and holes being swept across the junction have enough energy so that when they eventually release that energy it is enough to generate a new electron and hole pair which themselves are swept away by the electric field also.

pn junction diode conducts current in one directions where as the zener diode conducts in both the directions. large current flow damage the PN junction diode but zener diode conducts eventhough there is a large current........

The official state wildflower of Alabama is the oak-leaf hydrangea. It was designated as such in 1999.

because reverse biased current is constant upto avalanche breakdown.

When p-n junction of a diode reversed biased then majority carriers are not able to cross the junction and are attracted in respective regions.So current becomes approximately zero.But because of minority carriers a reverse current keeps flowing.It is called Reverse Saturation Current.And due to attraction towards sides,charges go away from junction.So width of depletion reason increases.

Reverse Bias

Zener diodes are mainly used as voltage sources.

Since they provide a reasonably constant voltage drop, even when current changes, they are useful in small power supplies as voltage regulators.

Its called the radius. See the related link for more information.

The 1984 Penn State University football roster featured a talented group of players under head coach Joe Paterno, contributing to a successful season. Key players included quarterback Todd Blackledge, running back Curt Warner, and wide receiver Kenny Jackson. The team finished the season with a 12-0 record and won the national championship, showcasing a strong defense and powerful offense throughout the year. Notable defensive players included linebacker Shane Conlan and safety D.J. Dozier, who played pivotal roles in the team's success.

A zener is a diode that has the property when reversed bias to breakdown at a specific voltage this voltage will remain constant as current increase. It is important to be aware that the diode will need to dissipate heat while it is operating. The power is the current flowing through the diode multiplied by the voltage across the diode. For zener diodes with a high reverse breakdown voltage, it can be seen that a lot of power may need to be dissipated for a relatively low current.

We can use the constant voltage as a reference voltage. Either a component can be powered directly from the reference voltage created or additional components can be used to increase the available current.
