Applications of zener voltage regulator

Applications:

There are some important applications of zener voltage regulator which are given below.

• The zener voltage regulator is used to regulate or vary the output voltage of the circuit.
• It is used to adjust voltage or current linear and switching power supplies.
• It is also used in error amplifiers.
• It is used in analog and digital circuits requiring precision references.
• It is used in source and sinks circuits current.
• It is used in the emitter follower regulator.
• It is used with a small load current range over which the output DC voltage remain constant.
