MCQ
In a $p-n$ junction diode, change in temperature due to heating
- Aaffects only reverse resistance
- Baffects only forward resistance
- ✓affects the overall $V - I$ characteristics of $p-n$ junction
- Ddoes not affect resistance of $p-n$ junction
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
affects the overall $V - I$ characteristics of $p-n$ junction
c
Due to heating, number of electron-hole pairs will increase, so overall resistance of diode will change.
Due to which forward biasing and reversed biasing both are changed.
