Working Principle
A Zener diode is a special kind of diode that allows current to flow in either direction, but only allows it to flow in the forward direction when the voltage is above a certain "threshold" voltage or "breakdown" voltage.
This threshold voltage is usually printed on the diode and is usually referred to as the Zener Voltage.
When the reverse voltage is above the Zener Voltage, a large current will flow through the diode, allowing it to provide reverse voltage protection. This is known as the Zener Effect.
