MCQ

The incorrect statement about the property of a Zener diode is

A
Zener voltage remains constant at breakdown
B
It is designed to operate under reverse bias
✓
Depletion region formed is very wide
D
$p$ and $n$ regions of zener diode are heavily doped

✓

Answer

Correct option: C.

Depletion region formed is very wide

c
For zener diode $\rightarrow$ Doping is high

Depletion region is thin

It is operated in Reverse Bias region

Zener voltage $\left( V _{ z }\right)$ is constant
