Question 1

What is the function of the cut-in voltage in diode operation?

  • It allows current to flow.
  • It blocks current completely.
  • It reduces current to zero.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about what happens when a diode is forward-biased.

Question 2

True or False: A diode does not conduct any current below the cut-in voltage.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember the characteristics of diodes in the OFF state.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You are designing a circuit that requires a silicon diode to be operated at a fixed DC voltage of 1V. How would the output voltage behave if an AC signal is superimposed at 50Hz?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Sketch the input and output waveforms to visualize the relationship.

Question 2

Evaluate the effect of increasing temperature on the performance of a diode in a circuit with a fixed forward bias of 0.7V.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the impact of temperature on electronic properties.
