Correct answer: A. More than

  • A. More than
  • B. Less than
  • C. Equal to
  • D. None of the above

Explanation

A higher breakdown-voltage Zener generally has a wider depletion region, so a 30 V Zener has a wider depletion layer than a 10 V Zener. Very low-voltage Zeners rely mainly on the narrow-junction Zener effect.
