Twenty Rows' 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon was harvested in mid-to-late October from appelations across Napa Valley including Mt. Veeder, Coombsville, and Oak Knoll. The Cabernet Sauvignon fruit also includes 4% Petite Verdot, 4% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Malbec.
Zener diode is a diode which is used in its break down region. The diode is kept reverse biased in a circuit, and so it does not allow current to pass until the voltage is greater than the breakdown voltage of the zener.
In the circuit above, there is 10 V across the Zener diode, and 2 V across the resistor. With 2 V across a 400 ohm resistor, the current through that resistor (and the diode, in series) is 5 mA.Zener voltage references. The fixed voltage property of Zener diodes makes them extremely handy as quick voltage references.n the circuit above, there is 10 V across the Zener diode, and 2 V across the resistor. With 2 V across a 400 ohm resistor, the current through that resistor (and the diode, in series) is 5 mA.
