what is a zener diode? the zener diode is a diode that uses the reverse breakdown state of the pn junction to cause the current to change within a wide range while the voltage remains basically unchanged, and plays a voltage stabilizing role. [1] the diode is a semiconductor device that has a high resistance until a critical reverse breakdown voltage is reached. at this critical breakdown point, the reverse resistance decreases to a very small value. in this low-resistance region, the current increases while the voltage remains constant. zener diodes are rated based on breakdown voltage. because of this property, zener diodes are mainly used as voltage regulators or voltage reference components. zener diodes can be connected in series for higher voltages, and higher stable voltages can be obtained by connecting them in series.
