3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What happens to the depletion region under forward bias?
Think about how the voltage affects the junction barrier.
How does reverse bias affect current flow?
Consider what happens to majority and minority carriers.
What happens to the depletion region in forward bias?
Think about what happens to the junction when voltage is applied.
True or False: In reverse bias, current can flow easily.
Consider how the electric field affects the carriers.
A silicon diode has a forward bias applied. Determine the current flowing through if the voltage is 1.4V and provide an explanation for your reasoning.
Use your understanding of exponential growth in diode currents.
Explain how reverse bias can protect sensitive electronic components in circuits.
Think about common applications of diodes in circuits.
