The circuit was designed to provide a means for measuring the operating voltage of zener diodes before applying on a circuit. Zener Diode – a special kind of diode that permits the flow of current in ...

In this article, we will explore the basic functions of the Zener Diode. This device resembles a compact cylinder, much like the conventional diode, with two terminals at the ends that can be wired or ...

We always enjoy [w2aew’s] videos, and his latest on zener diodes is no exception. In it, he asserts that all Zener diodes are not created equal. Why? You’ll have to watch the video below to find out.

[Afroman] is back again with another great tutorial video on the basics of electronics. This time it’s zener diodes. Page three or four of every ‘beginners guide to electronics’ covers a diode as, “a ...

There are times when you need to bias a low-current load and simply didn’t want to add another voltage regulator, or where you need a reasonable level of voltage accuracy, so a simple voltage divider ...
