When the voltage drop across a p-n junction is increased from 0.80 V to 0.82 V, the change in the diode current is 20 mA. What is the dynamic resistance of the diode ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the dynamic resistance of the diode, we can use the formula for dynamic resistance \( R_d \): \[ R_d = \frac{\Delta V}{\Delta I} \] where: - \( \Delta V \) is the change in voltage across the diode, ...
