Which of the following constitutes Zener diode?(a) Oscillator(b) Regulator(c) Rectifier(d) FilterThis question was addressed to me in examination.This is a very interesting question from Semiconductor Electronics topic in portion Semiconductor Electronics : Materials, Devices and Simple Circuits of Physics – Class 12

Answer» RIGHT choice is (B) Regulator

For explanation I WOULD say: Zener diode can be used as a voltage regulator. They are in TURN used as shunt regulators to regulate the voltage in RELATIVELY smaller circuits. Zener diode is obtained as a result of reverse biasing of a p-n junction diode.
