The V - I characteristic of a diode is shown in the figure. The ratio of forward to reverse bias resistance is:
Options
- A100
- B10 6
- C10 - 6
- D10
Correct answer
C. 10 - 6
Step-by-step solution
Forward bias resistance R 1 = 0.8 - 0.7 20 - 10 × 10 - 3 = 0.1 10 × 10 - 3 = 10   Ω . Reverse bias resistance R 2 = 10 10 - 6 = 10 7   Ω . R 1 R 2 = 10 - 6 .
