Determine the minimum value of load resistance that can be used in the circuit with (IZ)Min=3mA. The input voltage is 10V and the resistance R is 500Ω. The Zener diode has a VZ=6V 0and (IZ)MAX=90mA.
(a) 1KΩ
(b) 2.4KΩ
(c) 1.2KΩ
(d) 3.6KΩ
I got this question at a job interview.
The doubt is from Voltage Regulation Using Zener Diode in portion Application of Diodes of Electronic Devices & Circuits
