  8. Shockley Equation k = 1.38 × 10–23 J/K is Boltzmann’s constant and q = 1.60 × 10–19 C is the magnitude of the electrical charge of an electron. At a temperature of 300 K, we have

  9. Exercise 10.1At a temperature of 300K, a certain junction diode has iD = 0.1mA for vD = 0.6V. Assume that n is unity and use VT = 0.026V. find the value of the saturation current Is.

  10. LOAD-LINE ANASYSIS OF DIODE CIRCUITS

  11. LOAD-LINE ANALYSIS OF DIODE CIRCUITS By applying KVL, we get But two unknowns, we need one more equation relating iD and vD to solve the problem.

  12. Example 10.1If the circuit of Figure 10.5 has Vss = 2V, R = 1kW, and a diode with the characteristic shown in Figure 10.7, find the diode voltage and current at the operating point.Example 10.2Repeat Example 10.1 if Vss = 10V, R = 10kW

  13. Vss = i R + VD Vss = 2, R = 1k Vss=10, R=10k

  15. What is a Zener diode?

  16. Zener Diodes Diodes that are intended to operate in the breakdown region are called Zener diodes.

  18. ZENER-DIODE VOLTAGE-REGULATOR CIRCUITS A voltage regulator circuit provides a nearly constant voltage to a load from a variable source.

  19. Example 10.3The voltage-regulator circuit of Figure 10.9 has R = 1kW and use a Zener diode having the characteristic shown in Figure 10.10. Find the output voltage for Vss = 15V. Repeat for Vss = 20V.

  20. R = 1k Vss + i R +VD = 0 i = 0, VD = -Vss VD = 0, i = Vss/R
