Experiment no.4 ( 5,1 zener diode )

Components: 1x resistor, 1x 5v1 400mW zener diode, 1x diode 1N4007







NOTE:
Readings are as such due to the zener diode being in reverse bias and the second diode in forward bias


Resulting in the 10 volt circuit to have a reading of 10.07 mA, and the 15volt circuit having 15.48 mA

  1. You need to comment more about what is actually happening in this circuit.also you calculation on the current need to be redone as you for got to take V1 and V2 off your supply before you divided it by the resistor.

  2. You need to update your blog i see no change from my last comment
