ZENER DIODE VOLTAGE REGULATOR
AIM To design and set up a voltage regulator using Zener diode COMPONENTS AND EQUIPMENTS 1. Bridge rectifier circuit 2. Zener diode (6.2 volt) 3. Resistors 4. Capacitors 5. Voltmeter 6. Ammeter 7. Rheostat CIRCUIT DIAGRAM DESIGN To get a 5.6 V as output, select SZ 5.6 as Zener diode .Take load current as 5 mA. Load current =output voltage\output current = 5.6/5 mA = 1.1 K (use 1.2 K) R1 is used to limit the current .Take 1 K resistor as R1. THEORY Zener diode is a P-N junction diode specially designed to operate in the reverse biased…
