General Electronic Terms-Z
Z axis
Axis
perpendicular to both X and Y axes.
zener
diode
A Zener diode
is specially designed so as to have a reduced
breakdown voltage, the so-called Zener voltage.
A Zener diode contains doped p-n junction allowing
electrons to Channel from the valence band of the
p-type material to the conduction band of the n-type
material
zeroing
Calibrating
a meter so that it shows a value of zero when zero
is being measured
