Q.

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 = 4 k. The series resistance of the circuit is Ri = 1 k. 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? 

  1. A
