Does the material of the diode depends on break down voltage?

A Germanium diode has a much lower breakdown voltage than a silicone diode.


How much current draw zener diode?

It depends on the particular zener diode. Typically, they will pull 75 ma of current.


What is the incremental resistance obtained from the diode equation?

The incremental resistance of a diode is the inverse of the slope of the V-I curve at the operating point.


Can a defective diode be repaired and reused?

This is not really practical and the cost to repair (if it could be done) would be about 2 orders of magnitude larger than a new replacement diode costs.


How much forward diode voltage is there with the ideal diode approximation?

Consider ideal diode to be connected in series with resistor of 6kSilicon diode forward bias voltage = 0.7 voltsCurrent across 6k resistor = (5-0.7)/6000 amperesVoltage across {resistor + diode}=4.3 + 0.7=5vIf silicon internal resistance is 6k then voltage across diode=5vIf external resistance is 6k and diode resistance is negligible then voltage across diode=0.7v


What is the supply for a diode?

The diode voltage drop is 0.7 volts, so you need that much to turn it on. Current is controlled by a resistor in series.


What is the difference between a silicon diode and a germanium diode?

The silicon diode (unless its a Schottky diode) conducts at approximately 0.6 volts. The germanium diode, however, conducts at a much lower voltage, typically 0.2 volts. This means that the germanium diode is better at small signal rectification applications, such as AM radio detectors, allowing a smaller tuner tank circuit.


What is diode volve?

I think you mean 'diode valve'! A 'valve' is the British term for what Americans call 'tubes' or, more accurately, 'vacuum tubes'. So, a 'diode valve' is a thermionic valve generally used as a rectifier, much in the same way that a semiconducting diode is used, these days.


When a 3.3 V zener diode is parallel with a 7 V zener diode what is the break down voltage?

Since they are in parallel, the 3.3V zener diode will "kick in" first when you reach 3.3V, and the circuit will pretty much act the same as if the 7V zener diode isn't there at all.


How is zener diode different from a conventional diode or ideal diode?

zener diode :zener diode operates under reverse bias voltageideal diode :ideal diode operates under forward bias voltage


How much voltage is there across a germanium diode when it is forward biased?

About 0.2V


Can a diode be used as rectifier diode?

yes, diode can be used as rectifier diode to convert ac to dc
