The forward biased diode connection is: (a) (b) (c) (d)

Answer: (a). Forward bias: anode potential > cathode potential. (a) +2 V > -2 V: forward. (b) -3 = -3 V: no bias. (c) 2 < 4 V, (d) -2 < +2 V: reverse. So the answer is (a).

P-N Junction Diode

The forward biased diode connection is:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

Forward bias: anode potential $>$ cathode potential.
(a) $+2\text{ V} > -2\text{ V}$ : forward.
(b) $-3 = -3\text{ V}$ : no bias. (c) $2 < 4\text{ V}$ , (d) $-2 < +2\text{ V}$ : reverse.
So the answer is (a).
