A tutorial on the Zener Diode and how to use them as voltage clamps, voltage regulators, and how to create audio distortion circuits. The zener diode works as if there are two regular diodes in ...

[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 ...

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.

047 HIGH-POWER ZENER DIODE Although its regulation characteristics are not as good as those of an integrated voltage regulator, a high-power zener diode has, nevertheless, useful applications, for ...

Suppose the zener diode on the circuit has a breakdown voltage of 10 V. What are the minimum and maximum zener currents? The applied voltage may vary from 20 to 40 V. Ideally, a zener diode acts like ...

Abstract: Near-junction, low-cost, and high accuracy temperature-sensing methods are needed for electronics cooling. Electrical components, either thermal test die or active integrated circuit devices ...

Abstract: An integrated back-to-back SiC Zener diode is proposed and designed as an asymmetric bidirectional voltage clamp between the gate and source to protect the gate oxide of SiC MOSFET from the ...
