In a `p-n` junction diode, change in temperature due to heating

A

does not affect resistance of `p-n` junction

B

affects the overall `V-I` characterstics `p-n` junction

C

affects only forward resistance

D

affects only reverse resistance

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Due to heating, number of electron-hole pairs increases. The resistance in forward biase and reverese biase changes.
