Which of the following is the correct statement regarding a Zener diode used as a simple shunt voltage regulator?
- 1The output voltage always decreases linearly with a rise in input voltage for the entire range of operation.
- 2The output voltage remains perfectly constant for the entire range of operation regardless of the breakdown region.
- 3The output voltage always increases linearly with a rise in input voltage for the entire range of operation.
- 4The output voltage increases linearly with the input voltage until the Zener enters the reverse breakdown region, after which the voltage across it remains constant.✓
Correct answer
The output voltage increases linearly with the input voltage until the Zener enters the reverse breakdown region, after which the voltage across it remains constant.
