DISCUSSION:
In this experiment, we have noticed that the diode characteristics
are different when we connect it in direct or invers bias. In
addition, the Diode voltage values are nearly the same even if
we change the resistance values, however, the current values are
decreased when we decreased the resistance values. What more
interesting about Diode that is when we connect it inversely the
total current was 0 that explain why the curve of the Diode
characteristics is somehow touching the horizontal coordinate.

CONCLUSION:
In conclusion, this experiment was very interesting to gain
knowledge about analogue electronics. It is main purpose is to
understand Diode characteristics and how Diode behaves in
direct bias or inversed bias.
