Question

At 50oC the forward current flowing through the Si diode is 1mA, then the dynamic resistance of the diode is________?.

Select one:
a. 86
b. 66
c. 56
d. 76

Answer 1

c. 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Dynamic resistance is offered by p-n junction diode when AC voltage is applied. When diode is connected to DC circuit the resistance is called static resistance. When a forward diode voltage is applied to diode the current flows through the diode. Dynamic resistance is also known as change in voltage to change in current flow. To calculate the dynamic resistance we divide voltage by current.

V = IR

where V= voltage, I = current and R = resistance.

R = V/I

R = 56
