Question

Choose the correct statement about Zener diode :

• A. It works as a voltage regulator in reverse bias and behaves like simple pn junction diode in forward bias.
• B. It works as a voltage regulator in both forward and reverse bias.
• C. It works as a voltage regulator only in forward bias.
• D. It works as a voltage regulator in forward bias and behaves like simple pn junction diode in reverse bias.

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

Woks as voltage regulator in reverse bias and as simple P-n junction in forward bias.
