1. Is every diode a Zener diode?
No. Although all Zener diodes are a type of diode, not all diodes can be called Zener diodes.
-
2. What are the disadvantages of Zener diodes?
Disadvantages include relatively high power consumption, sensitivity to temperature, and the need for proper heat dissipation.
-
3. Where are Zener diodes used in real life?
Applied to power adapters, overvoltage protection in electronic devices, LED drive circuits, etc.
-
4. What happens when a Zener diode fails?
If it is overheated or subjected to excessive current, it may cause permanent damage, which will appear as an open or short circuit state.
