The simple solution if you are in the consumer repair business is to test it with an ohmmeter. Set the meter scale to x1. Connect the test leads to the diode and it will read either 10 ohms for a silicon diode or no reading. Reverse the lead connections and it must now read the opposite of the first two parameters. If you don't have about ten ohms in either connection then the diode is open. If you have 10 to 100 ohms in both connections then the diode is shorted or leaking. If you have no ten ohms in either connection then the diode is "open. Germanium diodes will read about 2-3 ohms on the flow side and ma show a little meter movement on the reverse connection.

What is Another name for pn junction?

Why pn junction is neutral?

the material in which using for doping is already neutral.,,so the pn-junction diode also neutral........

Why use the PN junction diode in rectifier?

We use pn junction diode in rfctification as a rectifier becase it allows current to flow in one direction only, i.e. in forward biase only , and stop current to flow in reverse baised. thats why we use pn junction diode in rectification.

What are the types of biasing in pn junction diode?

There are 2 type of biasing in PN junction didoe Forward biasing Reverse biasing

What is the junction resistance of pn junction diode?

The resistance of a forward biased pn junction is zero.

What is the difference between p n junction and zener diode?

The difference between the pn-junction diode and the zener diode is that the pn-junction diode is used for rectification while the zener diode is used for rectification and stabilization. Also, the zener diode can function in the breakdown region while the pn-juntion diode can not function in that regime.

Why tunnel diode are used in negative resistance region?

because that the tunnel diode is a standard pn junction diode in many respect except its highly doped pn junction so it has some characteristics in the negative resistance region another that its a standard diode
