EECE 251 - Tutorial on Diodes (Part 2/2)

... second part of the tutorial. A Zener diode pair of exercises. A caveat is necessary for those viewers not in my class: I had to decide on whether to make these videos private for my students only, or expose them to a larger audience of UA-cam. I chose the second one, but please keep in mind in watching them, that EECE 251 is NOT a course in electronics ... it is a course on circuits theory. The emphasis is on how we can and do represent electric and electronic physical devices with equivalent circuits that have their "range of applicability". In an electronics course, I would have solved this in much simplified and approximated way (the way I used to do in the twenty some years working for industry all over the planet --never worked in Africa, or in Australia ... next life, perhaps--).

Hello, I must comment to tell you how valuable your videos have to been to not only clarify the theory but to also provide a strategy for approaching the many topics, circuits, and problems I have encountered in my journey to be an electrical engineer. Thank you so very much!

Not in your class don't even attend the same school but I wish I was, you explain it much better then any professor I've had. Thank you for making these public for others to see them :-)

Thank you Linares, you are by far the best professor I have ever had!

Over the past week I have consumed your MOSFET lectures as well as all those on OPAMPS and now DIODES. I loaded maxima (a software math package out of MIT) on all my computers and try to do the KCL equations and solutions myself before your excellent explanations. Although I can do the algebra on paper, it is less stressful to use a tool like the HP-50g, maxima, octave, sage, or matlab to solve the equations symbolically. What a world we live in! I am also getting started with Circuit Maker.

this is the best way to teach electronics, but we struggle with pearson books with lots of formulas, thank you so much for making this easy.

Greeting from Sweden. Good stuff. Its Much easier to understand the course I'm taking with explained problems rather that just use my work book and going to class.

[@rolinychupetin]

Hobby Electronics Thank you HE from Sweden, for commenting. Good luck with your course.

I have an final exam tomorrow and this saved me!

... (continuation from the previous one, because of the length limit for comments) ... In an electronics course, I would have solved this in much simplified and approximated way (the way I grew used to do in the twenty some years working for industry all over the planet --never worked in Africa, or in Australia ... next life, perhaps-- Even then, if I had had an HP-50g with me during those years, I may have done things differently. These are very interesting times for the young engineer).

Thanks..!!! u saved me I was really confused with this ..!! now everything is clear .>!!
