If diode works properly in 0.7volts than why we you use ideal diode and practical diode?

In theory A diode clamps 0.7 volts across it but in practice the number is not exactly 0.7 volts because it can not be controlled. This is only the case with Silicon Diodes (clamping 0.7 volts), as Germanium ones, ideally clamp 0 Volts, but in practice it is not exactly Zero. Basically, in practice it is not exactly 0.7 volts but when doing theory one assumes it to be 0.7volts for ease of operation.


What is the theory of diode operation?

The theory of diode operation is based on the principles of semiconductor physics, particularly the p-n junction. A diode consists of p-type and n-type semiconductor materials joined together, creating a junction where electrons and holes recombine. When forward-biased, the diode allows current to flow easily as the applied voltage reduces the barrier potential, enabling charge carriers to move across the junction. Conversely, when reverse-biased, the diode blocks current flow, as the barrier potential increases, preventing charge carriers from crossing the junction.


If a DIODE or RECTIFIER can handle 1000V and 75Amps is it also safe to run the same diode at 20V and 300Amps. The first is 75000Watts and the second is only 6000Watts in theory it should work..?

No, the diode is physically rated to only 75 Amps, at voltages up to 1000V. Its not a power factor thing, the top limit is 75 Amps.


Difference between gunn diode and pin diode?

gunn diode is transfered electron device & PIN diode is semiconductor device


What is a real diode?

whether we know that p-n diode is real diode. But still in case of semeconductor we see then silics is real diode.

From theory you will remember that the zener diode is used in the?

Provided the zener has enough current through it it will control the voltage for a load.
