A series regulator provides an output voltage of 12 V and a maximum output current of 1 A.
(a) Calculate the value of the current limiting resistor (R
6
).
(b) What is the voltage dropped across R
6
when the output current is at its 1 A limit?
(c) Foldback protection circuitry is now added to reduce the short-circuit current to 0.5 A. By calculating k’ and R6 determine the voltage across R
6
at maximum current.
(d) Repeat (c) for a short-circuit current of 0.1 A.
