This diode can also be used in photodiode transducers and many other applications. It has been used in bipolar transistor switching circuits, laser diodes, and in many other applications where a low reverse leakage, low reverse stability, and low capacitance are required.

Working Principle:

The Zener diode is a two-terminal electronic device with a reverse breakdown voltage that is deliberately chosen to have a specific value. It has a high reverse breakdown voltage, low reverse leakage current, and low capacitance.

When a reverse voltage, greater than it’s breakdown voltage, is applied to it, it starts to conduct. In its “on” state, the current is limited by its reverse voltage or power dissipation capability.

In the “off” state, the Zener diode is essentially a non-conducting diode, with very low reverse leakage current. This low leakage current allows the diode to stay in the “off” state even when a reverse voltage greater than its breakdown voltage is applied to it.
