1.	Draw and explain VI Characteristics of PN Junction diode. Write current equation of PN Junction
Answer» VI properties of PN junction diode in forward bias are non-linear i.e. CURVED line. When forward bias is given to the diode then a low IMPEDANCE path allows to conduct a large current which is KNOWN as infinite current. Diode equation gives an impression for the current through a diode as voltage function. Ideal Diode equation is: I = Io(e q/v/kt - 1) Where I = Gross Current, Io = "Dark saturation current", V = Applied voltage at the ends, q = Perfect value of electron CHARGE, k = Boltzmann's constant and T = Correct temperature (K).

Answer»

VI properties of PN junction diode in forward bias are non-linear i.e. CURVED line.

When forward bias is given to the diode then a low IMPEDANCE path allows to conduct a large current which is KNOWN as infinite current.

Diode equation gives an impression for the current through a diode as voltage function.

Ideal Diode equation is:

I = Io(e q/v/kt - 1)

Where I = Gross Current,

Io = "Dark saturation current",

V = Applied voltage at the ends,

q = Perfect value of electron CHARGE,

k = Boltzmann's constant and T = Correct temperature (K).
