In a reverse biased diode, when the applied voltage changes by `1V`, the current is found to change by `0.5muA`. The reversebiase resistance of the diode is

A

`2 times 10^5 Omega`

B

`2 times 10^6 Omega`

C

`200 Omega`

D

`2 Omega`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Reverse resistance =`(Delta v)/(Delta l)=1/(0.5 times 10^-6)=2 times 10^-6 Omega`
