When considering thyristor switching why is Isolated Gate
Control needed ?
d)
The filtered rectifier output is now feeds the regulator
circuit shown in figure Q6b.
i)
Name the type of regulator shown in the shaded area
and briefly describe its operation.

If the voltage, VL, that appears across the potential
divider is regulated to 5V what size zener diode is used?
The entire circuit uses the op-amp comparator to
iii)
allow the limit on the maximum load current to be
varied. Explain the operation of the circuit and
identify the maximum load current, IL , allowed if the
potentiometer's output is 4V and Rx is 20 ?
