JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 14. Semicondutor electronics

Both the diodes used in the circuit shown are assumed to be ideal and have negligible resistance when these are forward biased. Built in potential in each diode is \(0.7\; \mathrm{V} .\) For the input voltages shown in the figure, the voltage (in \(Volts\)) at point \(A\) is

  1. A \(18\)
  2. B \(8\)
  3. C \(12\)
  4. D \(15\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(12\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Diode \(D_{1}\) is forward biased and \(D_{2}\) is reverse biased. \(\therefore \mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{A}}=12.7-0.7=12\; \mathrm{V}\)
