what is the difference between zener diode n tunnel diode in
terms of their breakdown??????????
Answer Posted / shahid
A Zener diode is a type of diode that permits current to
flow in the forward direction like a normal diode, but also
in the reverse direction if the voltage is larger (not
equal to, but larger) than the rated breakdown voltage
known as "Zener knee voltage" or "Zener voltage".
A tunnel diode or Esaki diode is a type of semiconductor
diode which is capable of very fast operation, well into
the microwave region GHz, by utilizing quantum mechanical
effects.
Tunnel diode have a heavily doped p-n junction only some 10
nm (100 Å) wide. The heavy doping results in a broken
bandgap, where conduction band electron states on the n-
side are more or less aligned with valence band hole states
on the p-side

We are facing the problem of communication failure between seimens drives and ABB DCS. Between drives and DCS on RLM -01 module for communication purpose. We found red blinking i.e error blinking in RLM -o1 module. So we replaced with new one but after one month same problem again came. So again we installed old RLM-01 module. Now also RED blinking is coming but sometimes drives are not tripping. What will be the cause for this problem?
