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 ...

Abstract: The ultra-low gate charge characteristics and low gate voltage limitation of a GaN enhancement mode HEMT in combination with stray circuit elements poses many challenges of driving them in ...

Diodes whose reverse-breakdown characteristics are controlled precisely during manufacture are called as Zener diodes and are intended specifically for operation in the reverse breakdown mode ...

Zener-Diode-as-Voltage-Regulator' This project demonstrates the use of a Zener diode as a voltage regulator to maintain a constant output voltage under varying input voltages (line regulation) and ...

It isn’t unusual to expect a precisely regulated voltage in an electronic project, but what about times when you need a precise current? Over on EDN, prolific [Stephen Woodward] explains how to use a ...

In this tutorial, we will study the behavior of a diode reverse-biased by a Dirac pulse, subsequently considering the special (and unpublished) case of a Zener diode. In this tutorial, we will study ...
