Zener Diode
Zener diodes use the reverse breakdown of PN junctions to maintain a nearly constant voltage over a wide current range, providing voltage regulation or reference.
**Key Features**:
1. Negligible leakage below breakdown voltage; current rises rapidly near breakdown with tightly clamped voltage.
2. Binned by breakdown voltage; series connection achieves higher stable voltages.
3. Mainly used in voltage regulators and reference sources.
