What is Zener diode ? Zener diode is a diode that functions as a voltage stabilizer by taking advantage of the phenomenon that the PN junction's reverse breakdown state allows the current to change within a wide range while the voltage remains basically unchanged. [1] This diode is a semiconductor device with high resistance until the critical reverse breakdown voltage. At this critical breakdown point, the reverse resistance reduces to a very small value. In this low resistance region The current increases while the voltage remains constant. Zener diodes are graded according to breakdown voltage. Because of this characteristic, Zener diodes are mainly used as voltage regulators or voltage reference components. Zener diodes can be connected in series for use at higher voltages, and higher stable voltages can be obtained through series connection.
