Diode Basics, Application and Special Diodes

  1. What is the maximum number of electrons that can exist in the 3 rd^ shell of an atom?
  2. A certain atom has four valence electrons. What type of atom is it?
  3. In a silicon crystal, how many covalent bonds does a single atom form?
  4. What happens if heat is added to silicon?
  5. Name the two energy levels at which current is produced in silicon?
  6. Describe the process of doping and explain how it alters the atomic structure of silicon.
  7. What is antimony? What is boron?
  8. How is the electric field across the pn junction?
  9. Because of its barrier potential, can a diode be used as a voltage source? Explain.
  10. To forward-bias a diode, to which region must the positive terminal of a voltage source be connected?
  11. Explain why a series resistor is necessary when a diode is forward-biased.
  12. Explain how to generate the forward-bias portion of the characteristic curve.
  1. Determine whether each diode in Figure 1 is forward-biased or reverse-biased.

Figure 1

  1. Determine the voltage across each diode in Figure 1, assuming the practical model.
  2. Draw the output voltage waveform for the circuit in Figure 2 and include the voltage values. Calculate the peak forward current through the diode.

Figure 2

(e) What is the peak current through each diode?

(f) What is the PIV for each diode?

  1. What PIV rating is required for the diodes in a bridge rectifier that produces an average output voltage of 50V?
  2. Sketch the output voltage of the bridge rectifier in Figure 5.

Figure 5

  1. A full-wave rectifier produces an 80 V peak rectified voltage from a 60 Hz ac source. If a 10 μF filter capacitor is used, determine the ripple factor for a load resistance of 100 kΩ.

  1. Determine the output voltage waveform for each circuit in Figure 6.

Figure 6

  1. Sketch the output voltage waveform for the circuit in Figure 7.

Figure 7

  1. Describe the output waveform of each circuit in Figure 8, Assume the RC time constant is much greater than the period of the input.
  1. Repeat problem above for a voltage quadrater.
  2. Based on the value given, would you expect the circuit in Figure 9 to fail? If so, why?

Figure 9

  1. A loaded zener regulator is shown in Figure 10. VZ =5.1 V at IZT =49mA, IZK =1 mA, ZZ =7 and I (^) ZM =70mA. Determine the minimum and maximum permissible load currents.

Figure 10

  1. Find the load regulation expressed as a percentage in Problem 27.
  2. Analyze the circuit in Figure 10 for percent line regulation using an input voltage from 6V to 12V with no load.
  1. Determine how to connect the seven-segment display in Figure 13 to display ‘5’. The maximum comtinous forward current for each LED is 30mA and a +5V dc source is to be used.
