Semiconductors Question 12
Question 12 - 01 February - Shift 2
Choose the correct statement about Zener diode:
(1) It works as a voltage regulator in reverse bias and behaves like simple pn junction diode in forward bias.
(2) It works as a voltage regulator in both forward and reverse bias.
(3) It works a voltage regulator only in forward bias.
(4) It works as a voltage regulator in forward bias and behaves like simple pn junction diode in reverse bias.
Show Answer
Answer: (1)
Solution:
Woks as voltage regulator in reverse bias and as simple P-n junction in forward bias.
