For the given circuit of `PN`-junction diode, which of the following statements is correct?

A

In forward biasing the voltage across `R` is `V`

B

In forward biasing the voltage across `R` is `2V`

C

In reverse biasing the voltage across `R` is `V`

D

In reverse biasing the voltage across `R` is `2V`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

In forward biasing, resistance of `PN` junction diode is zero, so whole voltage appears across the resistance.
