Question

A diode with the $i-v$ characteristic shown in Figure 8.8 is connected in series with a $5-\mathrm{V}$ DC voltage source (in the forward-bias direction) and a load resistance of $200 \Omega$, similar to that shown in Eigure P8.34. Determine: a. The load current and voltage. b. The power dissipated by the diode. c. The load current and voltage if the load is changed to $100 \Omega$ and $500 \Omega$.

a-battery-with-an-emf-of-10-mathrmv-is-connected-to-a-10-mathrmk-omega-resistor-and-a-diode-a-nonohm

A battery with an emf of $1.0 \mathrm{V}$ is connected to a $1.0-\mathrm{k} \Omega$ resistor and a diode (a nonohmic device) as shown in part (a) of the figure. The current that flows through the diode for a given voltage drop is shown in part (b) of the figure. (a) What is the current through the diode? (b) What is the current through the battery? (c) What is the total power dissipated in the diode and resistor? (d) Suppose the battery emf were increased so that the power dissipated in the 1.0 -k.\Omega resistor doubled. Would you expect the power dissipated in the diode to double? If not, would it increase by a factor greater than 2 or less than $2 ?$ Explain briefly.

a-the-two-diodes-described-in-problem-921-are-connected-in-series-and-are-driven-by-a-constant-curre

(a) The two diodes described in Problem $9.21$ are connected in series and are driven by a constant current source of $0.80 \mathrm{~mA}$. Determine $(i)$ the current in each diode and (ii) the voltage across each diode. ( $b$ ) Repeat part $(a)$ for the case when the diodes are connected in parallel.

00:06 Voltage across the diode is since the voltage and the resistor are in parallel so across both of them the voltage is one volt so voltage across the diode is one volt and from the graph voltage across the diode equals one volt corresponds to current across the diode being 2 mm ampere now resistance of the diode can be found which is voltage across the diode divided by current through the diode, which is 1 volt divided by 0 .002 ampere equals 500 om...
