Question

Draw the characteristic curve for Zener diode and
find out its breakdown voltage from the curve.​

Answer 1

Answer:

To draw the characteristic curve of a Zener diode and to determine its reverse breakdown voltage. A Zener diode (with small reverse breakdown voltage of about 6 volts), [i.e., Vz = 6 V], a ten volt battery, a high resistance rheostat, two 0-10 V voltmeter, one 0-100 mA ammeter, one 20 Ω.
