1.

Assertion (A) : Zener diode works on the principle of breakdown voltage. Reason (R) : Current increases suddenly after breakdown voltage.

Answer»

Solution :Zener diodes are special PURPOSE diode used as VOLTAGE regulator. They are used in reverse bias in breakdown voltage region and work on the principle that below breakdown voltage they behave as insulator but at and above breakdown voltage they START DRAWING a large current.
