Diode Approximation

(Sunday, May 9, 2010)

Diode Approximation : (Large signal operations):
1.
Ideal Diode:    When forward biased, resistance offered is zero,
                When reverse biased resistance offered is infinity. It acts as a perfect switch .Fig10
2.
Second Approximation:
when forward voltage is more than 0.7 V, for Si then it conducts and offers zero
   resistance. Fig 11.

3rd Approximation:
when forward voltage is more than 0.7 v, then it conduct and offer bulk
   resistance Rf (slope of the current) fig.12

VD = 0.7 + ID Rf.
When reverse biased resistance offered is very high. (and not infinity). Then the diode equivalent circuit is as
shown in fig13.

Problem:
Calculate the voltage output for following inputs

(a) V1=V2=0.

(b) V1=V, V2=0.

(c) V=V2=V knew voltage =Vr?  .

Forward resistance is Rf.
