Questions
In a PN-junction diode,
a
The current in the reverse biased condition is generally very small
b
The current in the reverse biased condition is small but the forward biased current is independent of the bias voltage
c
The reverse biased current is strongly dependent on the applied bias voltage
d
The forward biased current is very small in comparison to reverse biased current
detailed solution
Correct option is A
In forward biased PN-junction, external voltage decreases the potential barrier, so current is maximum. While in reversed biased PN-junction, external voltage increases the potential barrier, so the current is very small.Talk to our academic expert!
