ZENER DIODE

APPARATUS:

1. DC Power supply
2. Low-voltage AC power supply
3. Zener Diode 6V,9V
4. Resistance 0.1K, 1K, 3.3K
5. Oscilloscope

Part A: Zener diode characteristics


PROCEDURE:
1. Construct the circuit of figure. Set the DC supply to 0V and record
the measured value of R

Firure-1

2. Set the DC supply (E) to the values appearing in Table 1 and


measure both VZ and VR.
Calculate the zener current, IZ using Ohm’s law given in the table and
complete the table.
3. Plot IZ versus VZ using data in table 1 on graph paper.
R (Measured) = ________________________
Table:
Graph:

Part B: Zener diode Regulation


1. Construct the circuit of figure-2. Record the measured value of each
resistor.
2. Measure the value of VL and VR. Using the measured values,
calculate the value for current
through R, IR and RL, IL and current through zener diode IZ.
3. Checks the output waveform on oscilloscope also sketch the output
waveform.
R (measured) = __________________ RL (measured) =
__________________
VR (measured) = __________________ VL (measured) =
__________________
IR-VR/R = __________________ IL = VL / RL = __________________
IZ = IR - IL = __________________

4. Change RL to 3.3Kohm and repeat step 2.


5. After changing load resistance Check the output waveform on
oscilloscope also sketch it

Change RL to 3.3K ohm


RL (measured) = __________________
VR (measured) = __________________ VL (measured) =
__________________
IR-VR/R = __________________ IL = VL / RL = __________________
IZ = IR - IL = __________________
