L2 Flashcards
Diodes that use to prevent connection wrongly is called blocking diode
False. (Protection)
Diodes that prevent high induced voltage by a coil to damage a
the battery is called a protection diode
False. (Blocking )
Diodes that change dc to ac is called a rectifier
False. ( AC to DC not DC to AC)
SBD are fast diodes
True. SBD and FRD are fast diodes
FRD are fast diodes
True. SBD and FRD are fast diodes
SBD is faster than FRD but the breakdown voltage is not so good
True. FRD 10-100ns, SBD 1ns in terms of Trr. SBD (high leakage current )
SBD has a low forward voltage
True. SBD forward voltage between 0.15V to 0.4V whereas FBD 1.3 v to 3.6V
Reverse recovery means recovery in reverse
False .
If the opposite voltage is suddenly applied to a
forward biased diode, current will continue to flow in
the forward direction for a brief moment
This
time until the current stops flowing is called the
Reverse Recovery Time
Varactors are variable inductance
True .
Varactors
are special diodes that operate in reverse biased
and act as a variable capacitor.
The higher the reverse voltage, the higher varactor
capacitance
False. reverse voltage is inversely proportional to capacitance.
The higher the forward voltage, the higher the varactor
capacitance
Falze .reverse voltage is inversely proportional to the capacitance. Also look at the question it say forward but it supposed to be reverse biased.
Zener diodes are protection diodes
False. It is for voltage regulation
Zener diodes are voltage regulator
True. It is for voltage regulation
Zener diodes operate in forwarding bias
False, It operated in reversed biased
The Colour of LED depends on the colour of the LED casing
False.
