To draw graph for zener diode and determine its reverse breakdown. 0 02K

Dear Student ,
Plot a graph between input voltage VI (column 2) and input current (column 3), taking VI along X-axis and IIalong Y-axis.

Now the reverse breakdown voltage of a Zener diode, is called Zener voltage (Vz). The reverse current that results after the breakdown, is called Zener current (Iz).

At breakdown, increase of Vincreases II by large amount, so that V0 = VI– RI II becomes constant. This constant value of V0 which is the reverse breakdown voltage, is called Zener voltage.
So kindly use this above theory and plot the graph by yourself.
Hope this helps you.
Regards
