Z has various meanings in the Computing category. Discover the full forms, definitions, and usage contexts of Z in Computing.
It also permits the flow of current in the reverse direction when the voltage is above a certain value known as breakdown voltage. A zener diode is a diode manufactured to have a specific reverse-breakdown voltage. Its most common use is as a voltage reference. Zener diode a pn-junction diode that has an abrupt rise in current at a reverse-bias volt-age Vz, which is usually between 3 to 6 volts.
ComputingThe total opposing force to the flow of current in an ac circuit. The combination of resistance and reactance affecting the flow of an alternating current generally expressed in ohms.It is represented by the symbol Z. It is measured in ohms.
