Explain what is a pn junction? The contact surface between the layers of p-type and n-type semiconductor pieces plated together so as to form a p-n junction is called the p-n junction. 2. Why is silicon preferred over germanium in the manufacture of semiconductor devices? htp:tenginecringinterviewquestons.comuncton-dodes-questions-answors-pal! us stron The silicon semiconductor devices have, in general, higher PIV and current ratings and wider temperature range than germanium semiconductor devices, that’s why silicon is preferred over germanium in the manufacture of semiconductor devices. 3. Explain what does the arrow head represent in the schematic symbol of a p-n junction? ‘The arrow head in the schematic symbol of a p-n junction indicates the direction of conventional current flow when the diode is forward biased. 4. Explain what are the two mechanisms of breakdown ina p-n junction? ‘Avalanche and zener breakdown. 5. Name the breakdown mechanism in a lightly doped p-n junction under reverse biased condition. Avalanche breakdown. 6. Name the breakdown mechanism in a highly doped p-n junction under reverse biased condition. Zener breakdown. 7. Explain what is an ideal diode? ‘An ideal diode is a two terminal polarity sensitive device that has zero resistance when it is forward biased and infinite resistance when reverse biased. 8. Explain what is reverse saturation current? Reverse current of a diode is due to minority carriers and is caused when the diode is reverse biased. Only a very small voltage is required to direct all minority carriers across the htp:tenginecringinterviewquestons.comuncton-dodes-questins-answors-pal! 20 TOP JUNCTION DIODES Questions ane Answers pof JUNCTION DIODES Interview Questions and Answers ‘Cust Search povedty Google Engineering Questions v — 5 Be the first of your friends to lke this dia eel ELE Find us on Google Plus ais stron 20 TOP JUNCTION DIODES Questions and Answers pat JUNCTION DIODES Inierew Questons and Answers junction, and when all minority carriers are flowing across, further increase in bias voltage will not cause increase in current. This current is referred to as reverse saturation current. Gr Follow 589 followers 9. Is reverse saturation current of a diode is independent of reverse bias voltage? ‘Yes. 10. Why is germanium more temperature dependant than silicon? Because the reserve saturation current in case of a germanium diode is approximately 1,000 times larger. JUNCTION DIODES Interview Questions and Answers :: 11. What is the effect of temperature on the reverse saturation current of a diode? Reverse saturation current , theoretically , increases by 8% per oC for silicon and 11% per oC for germanium. But from experimental data it is found that that reverse saturation current increases by 7% per oC for both silicon and germanium. This is because a surface leakage current component of reverse saturation current is independent of temperature. Since (1.07)10 ..0 (approx.), the reverse saturation current approximately doubles for every 100C rise in temperature. 12. What is static resistance of a diode? The static or de resistance of a diode is the resistance offered by it to the direct current . It is defined as the ratio of the diode voltage and current at the point of interest and is not sensitive to the shape of the V-I characteristic curve. It decreases with the increase in diode current or voltage. 13.
