Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Consider a PN junction diode with a built-in potential of 0.7 V. Calculate the necessary external voltage to forward bias this diode and allow current to flow.
💡 Hint: Consider the needed voltage versus what is already present.
Question 2
Explain how changes in temperature affect the width of the depletion region in a PN junction.
💡 Hint: Think about how thermal energy influences carrier mobility.
