22. Zener Diodes

Zener diodes are the most basic voltage regulators you can find. They are fairly good at decreasing the ripple voltage presented to the load. You only need a current limiting resistor and the diode itself to set one up. This simplicity comes at the cost of limited current handling and a large loss in power dropped on the diode itself and the current limiter.
Avalanche and Zener diodes are discussed and tested in this video along with the calculations needed to select the current limiter. The temperature coefficients of Zener and avalanche current diodes are also covered.

Nice explanation off set voltage I like yo videos

[@TheOffsetVolt]

Thanks and welcome

[@konturgestalter]

such a great channel. please make more content

[@TheOffsetVolt]

I'll definitely do more. It takes me a while to make videos so they are slow in coming ... but they do get here!

[@CHzwaves]

Great Video..........Thanks for sharing 😊😊😊😊😊

Thanks for watching

GOOD PRESENTATION.PLEASE PLEASE TRY TO GET RID OF THE COMMERCIALS,THEY ARE DRIVING ME NUTS!

[@TheOffsetVolt]

Hi, I did turn off the mid-roll adds but it looks like I will have to go through every video and take care of it. Thanks for sticking through the commercials and watching.

starting of some videos were too boring with this old soldier you have done a good job with delete it
