Is=qA[(DpPn0/Lp)+(DnNp0/Ln)] or I=Is[Exp(qV/kT)-1] depending on what you are given

Reverse saturation current of Ge diode?

Reverse saturation current of germanium diodeThe current that exists under reverse bias conditions is called the reverse saturation current. Reverse saturation current of the germanium diode is typically 1 micro ampere or 10-6 a.At a fixed temperature, the reverse saturation current of a diode increases with increase in applied reverse bias. In reverse bias region the reverse saturation current also varies with the temperature.


What is Reverse Saturation Current of a diode?

When a diode is operated as reverse bias the current flow is almost completely blocked. A small amount of current is still able to travel in reverse through the diode and this is referred to as the reverse current saturation.


What is meant by reverse saturation current?

reverse saturation current is produced by the thermal activity of the diode materials. This current: 1- Is temprature dependant; that is, it increases as temprature. 2- Accounts fot the major portion of diode reverse current surface leakage current is produced by contamination on the surface of the device, allowing current flow to bypass the junction


How does the reverse saturation current of P-N diode varies with temperature?

1/T


What factors affect density currents?

Temperature, salinity and total saturation of other minerals, depth.


Factors affecting stability of an object?

temparature, collector current, reverse saturation current, beta of atransistor


Why do ocean currents reverse during the winter compared to the direction of the currents in the summer?

Ocean currents reverse in the winter compared to the summer because of changes in temperature and wind patterns. During the summer, warmer water and prevailing winds create specific currents, whereas in the winter, colder temperatures and changing wind directions lead to a reversal in the flow of currents.


What is Icbo in transistors?

Icbo (collector to base current when emitter is open) also called reverse saturation current as Is in reverse bias p-n junction diode.Regards


What is the reason for reverse saturation current?

its simple.reverse saturation current is because of the flow of minority carriers across the junction when the bias is changed suddenly from forward to reverse.this is why it doesnt depend on forward bias


What is meant by saturated current?

Different devices have saturation currents. For example transformers and transistors. There is not sufficient information in the question to allow a proper answer.


What is reverse saturation current in ideal diode?

When a pn junction is reversed bias practically no current flows through it ,but a very small current flows through due to minority charge carriers ,which is known as reverse saturation current .In p type due to electrons and in n type due to holes .


Why multimeter not measuring a peak value?

Reverse saturation current of silicon is in nano ampear therefore it is prefered over germanium
