Consider the junction diode as ideal. The value of current flowing through \(AB\) is

  1. A \(10^{-2}\;A\)
  2. B \(10^{-1}\;A\)
  3. C \(10^{-3}\;A\)
  4. D \(0\;A\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(10^{-2}\;A\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Here, the \(p-n\) junction diode is forwarc biased, hence it offers zero resistance \(\therefore {{I}_{AB}}=\frac{{{V}_{A}}-{{V}_{B}}}{{{R}_{AB}}}=\) \(\frac{4\text{V}-(-6\text{V})}{1\text{k}\Omega }=\) \(\frac{10}{1000}\text{A}={{10}^{-2}}\text{A}\)
