Active shunt voltage limiter outshines Zener
I need a circuit to limit the voltage across some dissipation limited devices. It must: limit the voltage to a maximum of 1.5 V, have symmetrical limiting, be capable of accepting a current of 2 A, and leak less than 100 µA at 1 V. Two Zener diodes in series, anode to anode, would do the trick, but … Read more
