A zener shunt regulator employs a zener diode for which VZ = 10.1 V at IZ = 10 mA while rz = 20 Ohm.The available supply voltage (VS) is 15 V, R = 200 Ohm, and the load resistance (RL) = 1.0 k a) Find VZ0.
b) Calculate the output voltage (VO) (hint: The derived expression for VO can be used here without proof)
c) If RL is changed so that the load current (IL) is increased to 20 mA, what is the value of the output voltage (VO)?
A designer of an instrument that must operate over a wide supply-voltage range, noting that a diode's junction-voltage drop is relatively independent of junction current, considers the use of a large diode to establish a small relatively constant voltage. A power diode, for which the nominal current at 0.8 V is 10 A. is available. If the current source feeding the diode changes in the range 1 mA to 3 mA and if, in addition, the temperature changes by ±20°C, what is the expected range of diode voltage?
A designer has a supply of diodes for which a current of 2 mA flows at 0.7 V. Using a 1-mA current source, the designer wishes to create a reference voltage of 1.3 V. Suggest a combination of series and parallel diodes that will do the job as best as possible. How many diodes are needed? What voltage is actually supplied?
