Question
need help on question i)and ii)
(b) The input voltage, Vin(t) = 15 sin(400mt) V is connected to four silicon zener
diodes as shown in Figure 6b. Zener voltages are Vz1 = 6,8 V, Vz2 = 3,3 V,
Vz3 = 4.7 V, Vz4 = 5.1 V. VF = 0.7 V for all the silicon zener diodes.
(i) Briefly explain how the output voltage, vo(t) is obtained during the positive
and negative half cycles.
(ii) Sketch and label 2 cycles of the output voltage waveform, vo(t).
Indicate the period, maximum voltage and minimum voltage.
