The circuit shown in Fig. 4 provides transfer characteristics with 7.5 V levels at the output vo. When v 0 V, a current of 0.5 mA flows in the feedback resistor (R2) and a current of 1.0 mA flows through the zener-diodes. Assume that the output saturation levels of the op-amp are +12.0 V, the forward-drop voltage of the zener-diode is 0.7 V, and the value of R, is equal to R2. a) Specify the zener-voltages of the zener diodes. b) Find the values of all resistors.
