Question



What is the primary use for a Zener diode?


Name 4 opto-electronic devices.


For an ideal Zener, is the Zener voltage is 15v and the power rating is 750mW, what is the maximum zener current allowed?


What is the relationship between base current and collector current called?


Show the equation relating IC   IB  and IE




6. For the circuit shown, the Capacitor voltage varies from 28v to 32v, Rs = 500? and the zener diode is a 1N4746A.


Calculate the maximum zener current, the maximum zener power.


A 2K? resistor is connected to the output, calculate the load power.


7. For the circuit shown, using the ideal transistor, calculate the collect to emitter voltage and the emitter current.  VBB = +15v,  Vcc = +15v, RB = 470K?, Rc = 3.6k?, Beta = 90


A 2N3904 is used at an ambient temperature of 65o without a heatsink.   What is the maximum power it can handle?

Explanation / Answer

Zener diodes are widely used as voltage references and as shunt regulators to regulate the voltage across small circuits. When connected in parallel with a variable voltage source so that it is reverse biased, a zener diode conducts when the voltage reaches the diode's reverse breakdown voltage. From that point on, the relatively low impedance of the diode keeps the voltage across the diode at that value
