 Draw the circuit diagram of a p-n junction diode in (i) forward biasing and (ii) reverse biasing. Also draw its I-V characteristics in the two cases.

Ans.

the circuit diagrams and the corresponding I-V characteristics for a p-n junction diode in forward and reverse biasing:

(i) Forward Biasing:

  • Circuit Diagram:
