Use a follower with base driven from a voltage divider to provide a stiff source of +5 volts from an available regulated +15 volt supply. Load current (max) - 25mA. Choose your resistor values so that the output voltage doesn't drop below more than 5% under full load.
So is the above circuit I drew even right? I don't understand what they mean by Load current and the " doesn't drop below more than 5% under full load" Plese explain this to me??
My attemp at a solution was just to find that V(emitter) = V(base) - 0.6 so then R3 = (5-.6)/.025 = 176 ohms Is that right, ha? Not even sure how to determine R1 and R2 since I dont know the current.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
