Question 1
A silicon diode in a circuit has an input voltage of 5V and a resistor of 1kΞ© while the diodeβs cut-in voltage is 0.7V. Calculate the output voltage if the reverse saturation current is negligible.
π‘ Hint: Use the diode behavior above threshold.
Question 2
When an AC signal of 1V peak is superimposed on a 5V DC on the diode circuit, how does the AC signal affect the output voltage? What happens if the DC is reduced?
π‘ Hint: Consider what happens when the DC level is below the cut-in voltage.
