The high power “zener diode” circuit using transistor shunt regulator presented here can be used for obtaining a highly accurate, temperature and voltage stabilized outputs from high current sources, safely. Normal Zener Limitation The low power zener diodes that we normally use in electronic circuits are specified to work with low currents, and therefore cannot […]
