- MCQ
Identify the semiconductor devices whose characteristics are given below, in the order \((a),(b),(c),(d) \)

Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Simple diode, Zener diode, Solar cell, Light dependent resistance
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Graph \((a)\) is for a simple diode.
Graph \((b)\) is showing the \(V\) Break down used for zener diode.
Graph \((c)\) is for solar cell which shows cut-off voltage and open circuit current.
Graph \((d)\) shows the variation of resistance \(h\) and hence current with intensity of light.
