Zener diodes are different from regular diodes. I only have a vague understanding of what they actually do so you should probably look it up on Google. You can't substitute a regular diode for a ...

We always enjoy [w2aew’s] videos, and his latest on zener diodes is no exception. In it, he asserts that all Zener diodes are not created equal. Why? You’ll have to watch the video belo… ...

The zener diode works withthe PCI clamp diode and the internalpulldown resistor to set the voltage levelat the input pin. To set the static level at the input pin,you must enable the FPGA’s ...

Zeners are commonly used as low-current sources for bias voltage functions, but the proper voltage reference can give the same result and with much-lower dissipation and no performance ...

For Zener it’s less about the cons and more about exploiting its strange configuration for voltage clamps, regulators, and making expensive guitars sound bad with audio distortion circuits.

ROHM has announced the development of high voltage Zener diodes optimized for protection and constant current applications in a variety of electronic circuits. The UDZLV and KDZLV series are ...

YoYo Dyne Propulsion Systems' new family of Zener-enhanced dark-emitting diodes (ZeDEDs) features a novel junction structure and an integrated light sink to achieve a 10X boost in performance over ...

According to Microsemi, its new family of ultra-sharp knee Zener diodes offers four times the voltage regulation and a 40-fold improvement in typical lower leakage current versus comparable devices.
