If each diode has a forward bias resistance of 25Ω in the below...
If each diode has a forward bias resistance of in the below circuit,
Which of the following options is correct?
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
C.
Step-by-step solution
As the diode is connected in reverse order, there is no current through it.
The effective resistances of the circuit can, then, be calculated as follows:
Each current through the diodes can be calculated as follows:
As the diode is non-conducting, the current will be divided equally among the other two diodes and .
Hence, the currents in the diodes can be written as
Thus,
