In a Zener diode,
- A only p-region is heavily doped
- B only \(n\)-region is heavily doped
- C Both \(p\) and \(n\) regions are heavily doped
- D Both \(p\) and \(n\) regions are lightly doped
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Both \(p\) and \(n\) regions are heavily doped
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Zener diode is heavily dopped with both \(p\) and \(n\) region. This means that the behaviour of Zener diode in forward bias will be same while in reverse bias, their junction potential is increased. So, that when voltage crosses the breakdown voltage, then current through the…
