Question

Zener diode, when used in voltage stabilization circuit is biased in

Answer 1

Answer:

Zener diodes are widely used as voltage references and as shunt regulators to regulate the voltage across small circuits. When connected in parallel with a variable voltage source so that it is reverse biased, a Zener diode conducts when the voltage reaches the diode's reverse breakdown voltage.

Working principle: Zener effect

Invented: Clarence Melvin Zener

Pin configuration: anode and cathode
