Name the diode which can act as a voltage regulator. Explain its working with the help of its labelled circuit diagram. Draw its V – I characteristic.
Answers (1)
- Zener diode can act as a voltage regulator.
- Zener diode is designed to operate under reverse bias in the breakdown region and used as a voltage regulator.
- Zener diode is fabricated by heavily doping both 'n' and 'p' regions
- When the applied reverse bais voltage reaches the breakdown voltage (Vz) of Zener diode, there is a large change in the current
- Zener voltage remains constant even though current through the Zener diode varies one a wide range
- This property of Zener diode is used for regulating voltage.
