QUESTION 1 $V_{IN}$ R 1 k? Determine the minimum and maximum input voltage required for the Zener voltage regulation for the circuit in the figure. Assume $I_{ZK} = 3 mA$, $Z_Z = 25 \Omega$, and $V_Z = 22 V$ at $I_Z = 60 mA$. Hint: The power dissipation is 1 W. (From the Figure: R = 1 k$\Omega$) $V_{IN(min)} =$ $V_{IN(max)} =$ V V

We have a Zener diode connected in parallel with a resistor and a voltage source. The Zener diode is used for voltage regulation, meaning it will maintain a constant voltage across its terminals as long as the input voltage is within a certain range. The Zener Show more…

Assume a Zener diode used in the regulator circuit has the following VZT=10 V @ IZT=24 mA; IZK=2 mA; IZM=80 mA and the unregulated input source Vin=20 V. Using the given data, a- Draw the Zener characteristic curve clearly showing the parameters given above. b- Determine the minimum value for RS (RS,min) necessary to keep the Zener current limited to a value below IZM. Hint: Let VZ = VZT
