A conductor carries a current that maybe regarded as equivalent to the sum of two components, one of them being a continuous direct current of 4.2 amp and the other a superimposed half-wave rectifier current. If the latter has a maximum value of 8.3 amp, calculate the average current in the wire if (a) both components have the same direction, (b) the two components are oppositely directed?
2b) A regulator curcuit needs to be designed with an input power supply which has a nominal value of V_PS=20 V and can vary by ± %25 and nominal output voltage of 10 volts. For this purpose a zener diode is employed with specifications given; power rating of 1 W, 10V drop at Iz=25 mA, output load current is to vary between I(subscript L)=0-20 mA and zener resistance of r_Z=5Ω
i) If the minimum Zener current is to be I_Z=5 mA, determine the required R_S
ii) Determine the maximum variation in output voltage
iii) Determine the regulation percent
