) State whether the following statements are true or false and then correct the false
ones.
i. In pn-junction diodes, the reverse saturation current stays constant
regardless of the ambient temperature.
i Under steady state, the overall charge of the depletion region in a diode
equals zero.
The peak inverse voltage of a pn-diode decreases with temperature.
The reverse recovery time of a diode determines the magnitude of the
forward diode current.
Design a voltage-regulator circuit to provide a constant voltage of 5 V to a load from a variable supply voltage. The load current varies from 0 to 100 mA, and the source voltage varies from 8 to 10 V. You may assume that ideal Zener diodes are available. Resistors of any value may be specified. Draw the circuit diagram of your regulator, and specify the value of each component. Also, find the worst case (maximum) power dissipated in each component in your regulator. Try to use good judgment in your design.
