Zener Diode
1
• Zener diodes are designed and optimized to operate
in their “breakdown” region (very sharp knee).
Zener diodes are “reverse biased.”
• A common use for zener diodes is voltage
regulation (it maintains a constant
output voltage even though the
Forward
Reverse
current through it changes).

Zener
Effect
• When a diode is heavily doped, the depletion layer
becomes very narrow. Because of this, the electric
field (= voltage/distance) is very intense. When the
field strength is intense enough, it will pull electrons
out of their valence orbits. The creation of free
electrons in this way is called Zener effect.
• Different than avalanche effect where the minority
carriers are accelerated to high enough speeds to
dislodge other minority carriers, producing a chain
effect that results in a large reverse current.

Zener Diode

• To get breakdown operation, the source voltage VS
must be greater than the Zener breakdown voltage VZ.
• A series resistor R1 is always used to limit the Zener
current to less than its maximum current rating.

Load Lines
1
• The Q point is where the circuit is operating,
based on the voltage source.
• The Q point is the intersection of the load line
and the Zener diode V-I curve.
• When the source voltage changes, a different
load line appears with a different Q point.

Temperature Coefficient
• When the ambient temperature changes, VZ will change
slightly. The temperature coefficient is defined as the
change in breakdown voltage per degree of increase.
Example: A Zener diode with a breakdown voltage of 4 V
may have a temperature coefficient of -2 mV/°C.
If temperature increases by 1°, the breakdown voltage
decreases by 2 mV.
• In applications requiring a highly stable reference voltage,
a Zener diode is connected in series with one or more
semiconductor diodes whose voltage drops change with
temperature in the opposite direction that VZ changes.

Zener Diode Ratings
• Maximum power  PZ  max   VZ I Z ( max ) . (safety factor of 2)
• Available tolerances (VZ): 1, 2, 5 and 20 percent.
• Zener resistance, RZT , increases at the knee
of the characteristic curve.
• A derating factor: how much you have to reduce
the power rating of a device. For example,
6.67 mW per degree for temperatures above 50 °C
is typical.

Optoelectronics
• Optoelectronics is the technology that
combines optics and electronics. This field
includes many devices based on the action of a
pn junction.
• Examples of optoelectronic devices are:
1) LED (Current  Light)
2) Photodiodes (Light  Current)
3) Optocouplers
4) Laser diodes

Light-Emitting Diodes
1
• LEDs have replaced incandescent lamps in
many applications because of: lower energy
consumption (efficiency) and longer lifetime.
• The material used for the semiconductor die
will determine the LED’s characteristics.
© McGraw-Hill
24
Energy Levels
1
• Each radius equals an energy level.
 The lowest energy level is in the smallest orbit.
 The highest energy level is in the largest orbit.
• When an electron is moved from a lower
to a higher orbit, it gains potential energy
with respect to the nucleus. Outside
energy is required to lift an electron to an
outer orbit. Sources of outside energy
are: heat, light, and voltage.
© McGraw-Hill
25
Energy Levels
2
• When an electron falls back to a smaller orbit,
it gives up the extra energy in the form of heat,
light, or other radiation.
Free electron  Recombination  Valence electron  Exit
© McGraw-Hill
26
Light-Emitting Diodes
2
• In a forward-biased diode, free electrons
cross the pn junction and fall into holes.
Falling from a higher to a lower energy level,
they radiate energy in the form of light.
• LEDs have very low reverse bias voltage limit
Typical peak inverse voltage (PIV) is  5V.

• The shorter lead is
the Cathode.
• The flat side is the
Cathode.
• Visible (red, etc.) or
Infrared Light
• The color of the light, which corresponds to the
wavelength energy of the photons, is primarily
determined by the energy band gap of the
semiconductor materials that are used.

Light-Emitting Diodes

• The typical forward voltage drop for LEDs is
between 1.5 V and 2.5 V.
• The brightness of a LED depends on the
current. The amount of light emitted is often
specified as its luminous intensity and is rated
in candelas (cd) for example 70mcd at 20mA.

Photodiodes
When light energy bombards a pn junction, it can
dislodge valence electrons (like thermal energy).
The incoming light produces free electrons and holes.
The stronger the light, the greater number of minority
carriers. The more light striking the junction, the
larger the reverse current in a diode.
A photodiode has been
optimized for its sensitivity to
light (the reverse current is in
range of 10μA).
Used in digital cameras.
© McGraw-Hill
37
Optocouplers
• An optocoupler is formed when a LED and a
Photodiode are used together.
• When input voltage is varying, amount of light is
fluctuating. Thus, output voltage is varying.
• Provides electrical isolation between the input and
output circuits.

Schottky Diode
1
• The Schottky diode is used for high frequency
rectification (>300 MHz), where fast switching times
are required. Common diodes used in HF rectification
produce reverse conduction called “tails.”
• The Schottky diode has very small reverse recovery
time tr: The time it takes to turn off a forward-biased
diode (recombination of stored charges).
© McGraw-Hill
40
Schottky Diode
2
• Uses a metal such as gold, silver, or platinum on
one side of the junction (no holes) and doped
silicon (typically n-type) on the other side.
• It has no depletion layer  no stored charges at
junction and no reverse recovery time.
• The Schottky diode has a barrier potential of only
0.25 V. It has low PIV, typically 50 V or less
• A majority carrier device
• No recombination occurs
