1N4736A 6.8V 1 watt Zener diode box of 2500pcs

A zener diode is one of the many types of diodes and is used for entirely different things than normal diodes. A Zener diode not only lets current flow in both directions but also makes this possible. A Zener diode, also known as a breakdown diode, is a severely doped semiconductor device designed to operate in the opposite way. When the potential reaches the zener diode voltage, a reversed voltage across the diode's terminals causes the junction to break and the current to flow in the other direction. A semiconductor device called a Zener diode has a breakdown voltage above a specific minimum voltage, which qualifies it for use as a voltage regulator. Low-voltage applications often use zener diodes, and they have a positive temperature coefficient, meaning that the current will increase with temperature.
