MCQ
p-n junction diode acts as:
- Aohmic resistance
- Bnon-ohmic resistance
- Cboth A and B
- Damplifier
✓
Answer
- non-ohmic resistance
Explanation:
We know that in the case of metallic conductors, the potential difference varies in direct proportion to the current flowing. The I−V graph of a ohmic conductor is a straight line. But, a p-n junction diode is not in according with Ohm's law. The current voltage characteristic curve of a p-n junction diode shows both forward bias as well as reverse bias characteristics as shown as in the graph.
