The current voltage relation of diode is...

The current voltage relation of diode is given by `I=(e^(1000V//T)-1)` mA , where the applied voltage V is in volts and the temperature T is in degree Kelvin . If a student makes an error measuring `pm0.01` V while measuring the current of 5 mA at 300K, what will be the error in the error in the value of current in mA ?

A

0.5 mA

B

0.05 mA

C

0.2 mA

D

0.02 mA

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`5 = e^(100 (V)/(T))-1`
`impliese^(1000V/T=6)" "....(1)`
Again , `I=e^(1000V/T)-1`
`(dI)/(dV)=e^((1000V)/T)1000/T`
`dI=1000/Te^(1000/TV)dV`
Using (1) , `DeltaI=100/Txx6xx0.01`
`=60/T=60/(300)=0.2mA`
So correct choice is (c) .
