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.

With a regular diode, current can only flow in one direction. But for the Zener diode, current can flow in both the directions. The zener diode works as if there are two regular diodes in parallel, ...

In this video, the presenter is going to give you a basic tutorial on schottky and zener diodes and what makes them special.

In this tutorial, we will study the behavior of a diode reverse-biased by a Dirac pulse, subsequently considering the special (and unpublished) case of a Zener diode. In this tutorial, we will study ...

For the longest time, Zener diode regulators have been one of those circuits that have been widely shared and highly misunderstood. First timers have tried to use it to power up their experiments and ...

Suppose the zener diode on the circuit has a breakdown voltage of 10 V. What are the minimum and maximum zener currents? The applied voltage may vary from 20 to 40 V. Ideally, a zener diode acts like ...

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 ...
