Voltage regulation is essential in electronic circuits to ensure stable and reliable operation of devices. When voltage fluctuates beyond acceptable limits, it can lead to malfunction or damage to sensitive components. Zener diodes serve as crucial components in voltage regulation circuits, providing a stable output voltage despite variations in input voltage or load. Electronic devices often require a constant voltage supply for proper operation. For instance, microcontrollers, integrated circuits, and sensors typically operate within a specific voltage range. If the voltage supplied to these devices deviates from the desired level, it can result in erratic behaviour or permanent damage. Therefore, voltage regulation circuits are employed to maintain a consistent voltage level regardless of changes in input voltage or load conditions.
