Question

1. [15%] Calculate $V_o$ and currents flowing through the two diodes ($I_{D1}$ and $I_{D2}$) based on 0.7-V model. Please use the following procedure: (1) make a plausible assumption; (2) calculate the voltage and currents based on the assumption; (3) check if the solution is consistent with the assumption.

Step 1

Make a plausible assumption: Since the left side is at -4V, we can assume that the diode on the left side is forward biased and conducting current. Show more…

Left side is -4V. [15%] Calculate V and currents flowing through the two diodes (Ip1 and Ip) based on 0.7-V model. Please use the following procedure: 1. Make a plausible assumption; 2. Calculate the voltage and currents based on the assumption; 3. Check if the solution is consistent with the assumption. 1k oVo 4V 4k -4V
