The presented solution for measuring voltage of Zener diodes using Arduino is completely new and original. The circuit uses LM317 as a constant current source and the whole measurement process is ...

Zener diodes are components that stabilize voltage optimally. Unfortunately, ... Arduino Uno is a robust choice for beginners and prototypes. It's based on the ATmega328P and offers a good balance of ...

Zener Diode Tester Calibration. Collect one serviceable ordinary diode and a 27V zener diode. Connect a 10k Resistor in series with the ordinary diode as shown in Fig-3(a), slowly increase the voltage ...

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 belo… ...

Suppose the zener diode on the circuit has a breakdown voltage of 10 V. What are the minimum and maximum zener currents? The applied voltage may vary from 20 to 40 V. Ideally, a zener diode acts like ...
