No, you cannot put two 5V voltage regulators in series to obtain 10V. Voltage regulators are designed to maintain a constant output voltage regardless of the input voltage, and connecting them in series would not sum their outputs as you might expect. Instead, it could lead to instability or damage to the regulators. To achieve 10V, it's better to use a step-up (boost) converter or a dedicated 10V regulator.

How does a zener diode works?

A zener diode is designed to be operated in reverse bias, and have a specified breakdown voltage. For example, if you wanted a part that is supposed to get 10V applied to it, and you only have a 12V rail, you can put a resistor and a 10V zener diode in series, and the zener diode will make sure that only 10V get dropped across it. Any more and it will begin conducting. It will draw enough current to drop the excess voltage across the series resistor. If the load on the output terminals increases, tending to reduce the output voltage, the Zener just takes less current. The idea is that the total current through the series resistor is enough to stabilise the output at 10V. ANSWER: A zener is a diode that has the property that when reversed bias is applied to exibit a breakdown of a voltage with a sharp knee. This property can be used as a regulator since the voltage will not change it the current trough the zener changes.


How many batteries needed in a series circuit?

It depends on the load and desired voltage. The voltage adds as you put batteries in series. Positive to negative, etc.


How do you use a resistor to lower ac voltage?

ummmmm... put it in series.


Where is the voltage regulater located on a 2002 ford e250?

Internal to the alternator. From about the yr 1995 to present they internalized the regulators inside the alternators. So just get and alt and put it on!!


Voltmeter in series circuits?

The only reason anyone will put a voltmeter in series is to measure current flow as a function of voltage drop.


Biased series positive clipper?

biased series clipper has more than one bettries and voltage out put is across resistance


Why would you add batteries in series?

Putting batteries in series will up the voltage of the entire circuit. Certain things need higher voltage, so you put your batteries in series. Putting batteries in parallel will not up the voltage, but will let the current last longer. Watches would be more of an example for that. You want watch batteries to last long.


Why do you build solar cells in both parallel series and series configurations?

Solar cells in parallel series configuration are used to increase the current output, while solar cells in series configuration are used to increase the voltage output. By combining these configurations, you can optimize both current and voltage levels for a specific application, such as maximizing power output in a solar panel.


How do you bring gold to melting point quickest?

The quickest way I know is to put it in series with a truly high voltage. A car battery will do.


When capacitors ate connected in series the capacitance increase or decrease?

Capacitors in connected in series result in a higher voltage rating, but lower capacitance. Two 470uF 50V capacitors connected in series will give you a total of 235uF, but you can put up to 100V across the series combination. Two 470uF 50V capacitors connected in parallel will give you a total of 940uF, across which you can put 50V (the voltage rating does not change for capacitors in parallel).


What happens when one or more light bulbs are added to the circuit?

A: If put in series current will decrease if put in parallel current will increase assuming the input voltage remains the same


How do you put 2 batteries in series?

Wire minus - to positive +. Know that this will increase the voltage but the amps will stay the same. Wire two 12 volt batteries together in series and you have 24 volts. Click the link.
