Question

A shunt regulator utilizing a zener diode with an incremental resistance of 8 ohm is fed through an 82-Ohm resistor. If the raw supply changes by 1.0 V, what is the correspondig change in the regulated outut voltage?

Answer 1

`\triangle V_0=0.08V`

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Incremental resistance
`R=8ohms`

Resistor Feed
`R_f=82ohms`

Supply Change
`\triangle V=1`

Generally the equation for voltage rate of change is mathematically given by

`(dV_0)/(dV)=\frca{R}{R_1r_3}`

Therefore

`\triangle V_0=\triangle V*(R)/(R_fR)`

`\triangle V_0=1*(8)/(8*82)`

`\triangle V_0=0.08V`
