   What is a Zener voltage regulator?

   • The zener voltage regulator consists of a current limiting resistor RS connected in series with the input voltage VS with the zener diode connected in parallel with the load RL in this reverse biased condition. The stabilised output voltage is always selected to be the same as the breakdown voltage VZ of the diode.
