P-N Junction And Diodes.

Application OF P-N junction diode

In a P-N junction diode :

P-N Junction|P-N Junction Diode Under Forward Bias

P-N Junction|P-N Junction Diode Under Forward Bias

P-N junction diode as rectifier (Half and Full wave)

The resistance of a reverse baised P-N junction diode is about-

The resistance of a revese biased P-N junction diode is about

Assertion: V-i charcteristic of P-N junction diode is same as that of any other conductor. Reason: P-N junction diode behaves as conductor at room temperature.

Assertion: Two P-N junction diodes placed back to back, will work as a NPN transistor. Reason: The P-N junction of two PN junction diodes back to back will form the base of NPN transistor.
