Which of the following is the symbol of zener diode?

  • A.Diode symbol with two hollow arrows pointing at it
  • B.Diode symbol with two solid arrows pointing at it
  • C.Diode symbol whose bar is bent at both ends
  • D.Plain diode symbol

Answer: C

The symbol of a zener diode is the one with the bent bar at the cathode, shown as (C). In the symbol, the triangle shows the direction of forward current and the bar at the cathode has its ends turned in the shape of a Z to show the breakdown action.

Symbol (A) is a light-emitting diode with arrows leaving the diode, (B) is a photodiode with arrows going towards it, and (D) is an ordinary junction diode with a straight bar. So the third option is the answer.
