The circuit was designed to provide a means for measuring the operating voltage of zener diodes before applying on a circuit. Zener Diode – a special kind of diode that permits the flow of current in ...

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 below to find out.

Toshiba Electronics Europe is expanding its surge protection Zener diodes line up with the addition of four new products.

Toshiba Electronics Europe has expanded its CUZ series of surge protection Zener diodes with four new models offering voltage ...

Toshiba Electronics Europe GmbH expands its surge protection Zener diodes lineup with the addition of four new products to its CUZ series. The CUZ56V, CUZ62V, CUZ68V, and CUZ75V, with Zener voltages ...

Before there were bandgaps, voltage references ranged from neon glow tubes to Zener diodes. Paul Rako, with the help of Bob Pease and others, “drifts” back in time to trace their history. Back on ...

The circuit has been constructed to test and measure the voltage rating of zener diodes. To be able to test the voltage rating of a zener diode up to 50 VDC, a small transformer and a single 555 timer ...

It isn’t unusual to expect a precisely regulated voltage in an electronic project, but what about times when you need a precise current? Over on EDN, prolific [Stephen Woodward] explains how to use a ...
