Question

how zener diode acts in forward bias condition​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Zener diodes are highly doped diodes. This means their behavior in forward bias will be same as a normal diode. But while in reverse bias their junction potential is increased. ... So that means when the voltage crosses 6V then the diode is in Reverse breakdown and hence the current through the diode increases rapidly.

Answer 2

Answer:

When biased in the forward direction it behaves just like a normal signal diode, but when a reverse voltage is applied to it, the voltage remains constant for a wide range of currents. At this stage maximum current will flow through the zener diode. This breakdown point is referred as “Zener voltage”.
