Diode Resistance Levels (DC)

Cards (7)

  • operating point coordinates (Idq, Vdq)
  • if there is a change in the operating point, it means there is a change in current through the diode or voltage across the diode or both, and when you change them the resistance will also change
  • when we apply voltage to a circuit the result in an operating point will not change with time
  • Q-point is derived from quiescent which means "still or varying"
  • what will happen tot he DC Resistance when we increase the diode current?
    DC resistance will reduced
  • DC resistance decreases with increase in current through the diode
  • in reverse bias condition
    reverse saturation current is very low and because of that the DC resistance will be high
