Several types of special-purpose diodes exist. One is the constant-current diode for which the current is constant over a wide range of voltage. The circuit symbol and volt–ampere characteristic for a constant-current diode are shown in Figure P9.20(a). Another special type is the light-emitting diode (LED) for which the circuit symbol and a typical volt–ampere characteristic are shown in Figure P9.20(b). Sometimes, the series combination of these two devices is used to provide constant current to the LED from a variable voltage shown in Figure P9.20(c).

AC voltage source: Amplitude=311.13, Freq=60, DC offset= 0. For the rectifier part, choose diodes with an appropriate PIV rating. Show all the formulas and computations involved in acquiring the values for the inductors, diodes, capacitor and resistors. In choosing your Zener diode, consider the output voltage and the output current. Note that the output current should be the minimum Zener current. For the value of the series resistor RS, choose a lower value for less ripple but always consider the required output voltage. The ripple voltage peak-to-peak value should be less than or equal to 1% of the required output voltage. Use the formula below for choosing the value…
