How to Calculate Zener Diode Resistor

Last Updated on January 23, 2024 by Swagatam 19 Comments

how to find zener resistor value

In this article I have explained how to calculate and the find the value of the zener diode resistor using simple formulas. What is a Zener Diode Zener diodes are semiconductor devices which are used for regulating an input DC voltage to any desired output voltage. The regulated output voltage value directly depends on the […]

How to Make a Shunt Resistor

Last Updated on January 23, 2024 by Swagatam 6 Comments

shunt meter compressed

A shunt resistor is a very low value, high wattage resistor which is connected in parallel to a low range meter, so that it helps the meter to substantially increase its measuring capacity. Quite often you might find it hard to measure large currents with a contemporary multimeter. If you’ve ever considered buying an industrial shunt to address […]
