ZD stands for various terms. Discover the full forms, meanings, and possible interpretations of ZD across different fields and industries.
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.
