The diode used in the circuit has barrier voltage 0.5 V and maximum power rating is 10 mW. What should be the minimum value of resistance R connected in series with the diode

a
400 Ω
b
200 Ω
c
100 Ω
d
50 Ω

detailed solution

Correct option is C

PDmax=IDmax×VD10×10−3=IDmax×0.5IDmax=10×10−30.5=20×10−3A=20mARmin=V−V0Imax=2.5−0.520×10−3=100Ω
