This is the current that flows under the application of a forward voltage. For eg. the dc forward current for an LED may be 30 mA when a forward voltage of 2.0V is applied.

The forward current of an LED is current that goes from the anode of the LED to the cathode (the forward direction).

What happen of a a diode When forward-biased?

when a diode is forward biased it conducts current


What is maximum forward current in case of diodes?

the maximum amount of current that a forward-biased diode can withstand before burning out or being seriously degraded.


Why does amplifier use only forward bias?

because in forward connection the internal field is in a direction of the main current so the current passes while in the backward connection it is reversed so no current passes


What is the difference altarnet current and direct current?

Direct current= flows in one direction ... AC flows in back and forward ..


What is the importance of the reverse-to-forward resistance ratio of a diode?

to determine the comparison of resistance value of both forward and reverse diode . The more the resistance the lower the current , the lower the resistance the higher the current . When reverse bias , the resistance is high and it acts in open circuit and the reverse current is very small that can be neglected . When forward bias , the resistance is low and it acts as short circuit and the forward current is increasing as the voltage supply is higher .


Why is the current nearly zero at a voltage less than 0.4 v in a forward biased silicon diode?

The current is nearly zero at a voltage less than 0.4v in a forward biased silicon diode because of the small forward-bias voltage.


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 forward bias current in semiconductor?

I think its related to junction of two dissimilar semiconductor (or semiconductor and metal) and not only a semiconductor. well when two opposite nature semiconductor (hetero or homo) are joined to form a junctions they allow the flow of current in one direction while blocks it in other direction. The applied bias V which will cause the current flow is called forward bias and the current flowing through the junction forward bias current.


What do lifeguards have to do if a person is caught in a current?

Make the rescue and swim along the current, so if the current is coming from in front of you go to your left or right, not forward and against it.


What is forward breakover voltage?

forward-breakover voltage - the voltage at which a device enters the forward-blocking region. The voltage at which the SCR enters the forward-condition region. The value of Vbr(f) is maximum when (Ig=current in gate) Ig=0 and is designate Vbr(f0). When the gate current is increased, Vbr(f) decrease and is designated Vbr(f1), Vbr(f2), and so on, for increasing steps in gate current (Ig1, Ig2, and so on).
