(b) The input voltage, Vin(t) = 15 sin(400mt) V is connected to four silicon zener diodes as shown in Figure 6b. Zener voltages are Vz1 = 6.8 V, Vzz = 3,3 V. Vz3 = 4.7 V, V24 = 5.1 V. VF = 0.7 V for all the silicon zener diodes. (1) Briefly explain how the output voltage, vo(t) is obtained during the positive and negative half cycles. (ii) Sketch and label 2 cycles of the output voltage waveform, vo(t). Indicate the period, maximum voltage and minimum voltage.
