Physics Semiconductor Electronics P -N Junction and Semiconductor Diode / Semiconductor Devices MCQ (Single Correct)

The adjacent figure shows I – V characteristics of a silicon diode. In this connection three statements are made –

(I) the region OC corresponds to reverse bias of the diode,

(II) the voltage at point A is about 0.2 volt, and

(III) different scales have been used along +ve and –ve directions of Y-axis. Therefore,

only statement (I) is correct

only statements (I) and (II) are correct

only statements (I) and (III) are correct

all statements (I),(II) and (III) are correct

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct answer is:

OC is reverse bias while potential of point A is approx. 0.7 volt.
