help

At the knee of the Zener diode curve, the _________________ is larger than at lz(test) At lz(test), Zz remains constant throughout the regulation range to lz(Max). True False The power rating of the Zener sets the absolute current the Zener can handle. True False Total current flow through the Zener regulator occurs at _________ load condition. The Zener diode can be operated in ______________ and ________________ bias mode. In ______________ bias mode, the Zener diode acts as a normal diode. The regulation level of the Zener is set by the voltage indicated by the data sheet. True False Placing a 6V and 3V Zener in a limiter, allows for two different___________________ signal levels. Zener limiters in Digital provide a form of____________________ for the Digital circuit. It is possible to place a 6V and 4V Zener in series to obtain 10 volts of regulation. True False When using two Zeners, the power rating of each diode must be the same. True False A circuit needs a 12V Zener capable of handling 200mA. Placing two 12V, 100mA Zeners in parallel will satisfy this condition. True False In a parallel situation, the Zeners may be of different voltage and power levels. True False Research an application of the follow circuits and include in Lab report, be brief. (Note: No hand written applications, place in a word document) Limiter Clamper Doubler Zener limiters

Explanation / Answer

8. Reverse voltage

9 True

10 false. the current through zener depends on load condition.

11 Maximum. (since minimum current will flow through load. when load is maximum)

12 Forward and Reverse

13 Forward

14 True.

15 clamping voltage

16 Clamp

17 True. this will provide only 6V

18 True

19 True

20 False. actually they can be different but it wouldnt make any difference. The lower voltage Zener will only work.
