For example, a diode with a Zener breakdown voltage of 3.2 V exhibits a voltage drop of very nearly 3.2 V across a wide range of reverse currents. The Zener diode is therefore well suited for applications such as the generation of a reference voltage (e.g. for an amplifier stage), or as a voltage stabilizer for low-current applications. [2]
English: The circuit diagram symbol for a Zener diode. When used in a circuit diagram, the words "Anode" and "Cathode" are not included with the graphic symbol. (Revised to conform to ANSI Y32.2-1975 and IEEE-Std. 315-1975.)
Diode (all types, including LED), thyristor "D" is preferred for various types of diodes DL: Delay line: DN: Diode network: may be simplified to "D" for diode DS: Display, general light source, lamp, signal light: F: Fuse: FB: Ferrite bead: sometimes changed to "L" for inductor, though "E" was used in the currently inactive standard IEEE 315 ...
Wire crossover symbols for circuit diagrams. The CAD symbol for insulated crossing wires is the same as the older, non-CAD symbol for non-insulated crossing wires. To avoid confusion, the wire "jump" (semi-circle) symbol for insulated wires in non-CAD schematics is recommended (as opposed to using the CAD-style symbol for no connection), so as to avoid confusion with the original, older style ...
In electronics, the Zener effect (employed most notably in the appropriately named Zener diode) is a type of electrical breakdown, discovered by Clarence Melvin Zener. It occurs in a reverse biased p-n diode when the electric field enables tunneling of electrons from the valence to the conduction band of a semiconductor , leading to numerous ...
The symbol as shown here is acceptable but could be confused with a Schottky Barrier Diode, which is a different kind of diode, and not a Zener diode. The bends on the cathode bar are different. See the Schottky diode page . To be technically correct we should also show the ISO standard symbol which has only one bend, at 90-degrees.
