1) In Fig. (1):
a) Determine the minimum input voltage required. Assume an ideal zener diode with
IZK = 1.5mA and VZ = 14V.
b) Repeat (a) with ZZ = 20Ω and VZT = 14V at 30mA.

2) In Fig. (2):
a) To what value must R be adjusted to make IZ = 40mA? Assume VZ = 12V at 30mA and
ZZ = 30Ω.
b) Draw is the output waveform if a 20V peak sinusoidal voltage is applied in place of the
dc source.
