A diode can conduct current in two directions with equal ease
True
False
A diode conducts current when forward biased
True
False
When reverse biased, a diode ideally appears as a short.
True
False
When a diode is forward biased and the bias voltage is increased, the forward current will
increase
decrease
not change
The term bias means
the ratio of majority carriers to minority carriers
the amount of current across the diode
a dc voltage is applied to control the operation of a device
neither (a),(b), nor (c)
A reverse-biased diode will act as an
closed switch
open switch
both open and closed switch
none of the options
The characteristic curve of the diode shows the relation between
Current and Voltage
Voltage and resistance
Voltage and Power
Resistance and Temperature
For a silicon diode, the value of the forward bias voltage typically
must be greater than 0.3V
must be greater than 0.7V
depends on the width of the depletion region
depends on the concerntration of majority carriers
A diode is normally operated in
reverse breakdown
the forward bias region
the reverse bias region
either (b) or (c)
Ideally, a diode can be represented by a
voltage source
resistance
switch
all of these
