Draw the
symbol and
the reverse bias I-V characterstics of a zener diode. Explain briefly, which property of the characterstics enables us to use zener diode as voltage regulator.

Draw the symbol and the reverse bias I-V characterstics of a zener diode. Explain briefly, which property of the characterstics enables us to use zener diode as voltage regulator.

Write briefly, how a Zener diode acts as voltage regulator.

Zener diode is used for:

Draw the current versus voltage characteristics curve of a Zener diode. Indicate the position of Zener voltage. Draw a labelled circuit diagram of a d.c. voltage regulator using a Zener diode.

Wha tis a zener diode? How is it symbollically represented? With the help of a circuit diagram, explain the use of zener diode as a voltage stabilizer
