how to bring zener diode in simulink?

[Himanshu Sharma]

there is no Zener diode in Simulink library. Just type "power_zener" in command prompt. then a readymade Simulink model of zener will open in Simulink. from here u can use Zener diode in ur model.

power_zener

Answer 1

[ashok kumar dornala]

Run the 'power_zener' command by entering it in the MATLAB Command Window. You'll get an example with zener in it. Just copy paste it in your simulink model.

Hi Ashok,

It's good idea. But it will not be applicable when the model is developed using other libraries except specialized power system tools.

Answer 2

[Justin Eladio Bueno Díaz]

You could use a normal diode an set the reverse breakdown voltage to the zener voltage and it should work just the same.
