What happens if a silicon diode measures high value of resistance with the meter leads in both positions?
If the meter is developing more than the necessary forward breakdown voltage of the diode, typically 0.7 volts, then the diode is bad. However, some meters do not generate enough voltage in resistance mode to bias the diode on, unless you flip a switch that enables diode test mode. Use another meter at the same time to measure the voltage across the diode and compare that with the diode's published forward breakdown voltage.
What else can I help you with?
Why is input resistance low and output resistance high in transistor?
The input resistance of a trasister is jst like pn junction of a diode which has a breakdown voltage of .7v for silicon and the output resistance is like a reverse bias of a diode and hence the resistance is high
Is silicon a semiconductor?
Yes,silicon and germanium are semiconductors.
The conclusion of a silicon controlled rectifier?
conclusion of silicon control rectifier
When was Silicon Valley Power created?
Silicon Valley Power was created in 1896.
What is the charge of silicon?
no it does not
What happens to the resistance of silicon as its temperature increases?
A: As temperature increases its resistance increases. Like all silicon diodes it will reach a point where the temperature coefficient is zero but it is at such elevated temperature to make it invaluable
Why are microchips made of sand?
Most sand is composed of quartz - silicon dioxide. The element silicon is used to make microchips.
What is the specific resistance of pure silicon?
The specific resistance of pure silicon is around 2300 ohm-cm at room temperature.
Of these 4 copper wood silicon aluminum which material would have the highest resistance to the flow of electric current?
silicon
Is silicon carbide is used for increasing the impact strength of the material?
No. Silicon carbide is used for abrasion resistance and traction.
Is there any very high resistance compound of Cobalt and Silicon.?
no
What do you mean by negative temperature coffecient of silicon?
It strictly means the temperature coeffecient of a particular property of silicon: as the temperature rises, the value of this property falls. Such as electrical resistance.
Why is input resistance low and output resistance high in transistor?
The input resistance of a trasister is jst like pn junction of a diode which has a breakdown voltage of .7v for silicon and the output resistance is like a reverse bias of a diode and hence the resistance is high
Why does F1 driver suit made from silicon compound?
F1 driver suits are not made from silicon compounds. They are typically made from a fire-resistant material like Nomex to protect drivers from fires in case of a crash. Silicon is not commonly used in driver suits due to its flammability and lack of fire resistance.
What is the junction resistance of pn junction diode?
The resistance of a forward biased pn junction is zero.
What happens when you add a small amount of impurity to silicon it turns into a?
semiconductor.
What is the compound name for silicon carbon?
The compound name for silicon carbon is silicon carbide. It is a compound made of silicon and carbon atoms in a 1:1 ratio, forming a hard and brittle material known for its high thermal conductivity and resistance to abrasion.
