10 CHAPTER 3. DIODES, PROBLEM SOLUTIONS 3.5 Problem 3.70 In the circuit shown in Figure (3.6), I is a dc current and v s is a sinusoidal signal. Capacitor C is very large; its function is to couple the signal to the diode but block the dc current from flowing into the signal source. Use the diode small-signal model to show that the signal
The Zener diode has three regions of operations. Each region has it own approximation model. It can be used as a part of protection circuit or as a voltage regulator. The use of the Zener diode as a regulator is so common that three conditions surrounding the analysis of the basic Zener regulator are considered: 1 Fixed load and xed supply voltage.

Question 5 Worst case is when power supply is 10 V and all current flows through zener diode In this case the voltage across the resistor is 10 − 5.1 = 4.9 V Therefore the current through the resistor is I = V / R = 4.9 / 33 = 0.15 A And so the current through the zener diode is also 0.15 A The power dissipated by the zener diode is P = V x I = 5.1 x 0.15 = 0.77 W
Solution. The barrier potential of the diode is neglected as it is an ideal diode. The value of current flowing through AB can be obtained by using Ohm’s law. I = V/R = 3 - (-7) / 1× 10 3 /10 3 = 10 =10-2 A = 10mA. Zener diode - Numerical Problems Questions with Answers, Solution. EXAMPLE: 9.3
Zener diode has the property of behaving like a dc battery in ‘on’ state (i.e. when the voltage across the zener diode exceeds its zener voltage rating VZ) . In ‘on’ state , the voltage across zener diode remains constant until the voltage across it deops less than VZ . This property of zener diode makes its use as a voltage regulator. 6.
