Question
The figure represents a voltage regulator circuit using a Zener diode. The breakdown voltage of the Zener
diode is 6 V and the load resistance is, RL = 4k$\Omega $. The series resistance of the circuit is Ri
= 1 k$\Omega $. If the
battery voltage VB varies from 8 V to 16 V, what are the minimum and maximum values of the current
through Zener diode?
