How does a diode shorted?
due to high voltage across the diode ie more than piv of the diode or current flows more than maximum allowed range of diode.
What will happen if the supply voltage polarity is reveresed for the case of using a diode with piv of 4.8 volt?
If we give more than 4.8 volt to a diode in reverse bias condition it will break down or destroyed.
How do you derive PIV of Bridge rectifier?
A: The input peak value is the guide for PIV
Why tunnel diode differ from the rectifier diode?
tunnel diodethe doping level of the tunnel diode is high when compared with the rectifier diodeit exhibits negative resistancerectifier diodethe doping level of rectifier diode is low when compared with the tunnel diode
What happens when diode is supplied with a voltage higher than RIV in reverse bias?
when diode is supplied with a voltage higher than RIV in reverse bias, the diode will burn out and will have zero resistance.
How does a diode shorted?
due to high voltage across the diode ie more than piv of the diode or current flows more than maximum allowed range of diode.
What is the significance of piv of diode?
The PIV (Peak Inverse Voltage) rating of a diode is the maximum voltage that you should apply to it in the reverse biased condition. Exceeding this voltage can destroy the diode.
What is PIV.Why PIV of a semiconductor diode is important?
peak inverse voltage... piv of semiconductor is impoetant bcz we need to know after a peak voltage the diode get breakdown or damaged... so we need to know the peak voltage. piv is a point which withstands the maximum reverse biased voltage. after which the diode get damaged.
The PIV of a diode is considered only when it is used as a rectifier?
A: Absolutely not. Any application of a design will have a minimum PIV for the circuit
What is the PIV rating of diode?
A diode will provide saturating current if it reaches its Piv. What it should be well at least 1.5 of the applied reverse voltage. For AC at least 2 times to insure that the peak REVERSE voltage is blocked
What is PIV in electronics?
The Peak inverse voltage (PIV) equals the peak value of the input voltage, and the diode must be capable of withstanding this amount of repetition reverse voltage. For the diode in figure, the maximum value of reverse voltage, designated as PIV, occurs at peak of each positive alternation of the input voltage when the diode is forward biased.Peak Inverse Voltage at Positive Half CycleThe Peak Inverse Voltage (PIV) occurs at the peak of each half-cycle of the input voltage when the diode is forward biased . In this circuit, the PIV occurs at the peak of each positive half cycle.
What are the limiting values of a PN junction Diode?
A: heat And PIV(Peak Inverse Voltage) or so called Peak Reverse Voltage is limit the diode characteristics.
What is PIV value of a half wave rectifier?
A: It realy does not matter half or full wave. the PIV will be 1.41 the RMS input example 100v ac will have a requirement of PIV of 141 volts on the rectifiers.
4. To more accurately represent a diode what factors must be included?
1. At what point on the input cycle does the PIV occur?
What is peak inverse voltage with reference to diodes?
The maximum voltage which can apply When diode in reverse bias..if it is exceed that voltage the diode may get damage.
What will happen if the supply voltage polarity is reveresed for the case of using a diode with piv of 4.8 volt?
If we give more than 4.8 volt to a diode in reverse bias condition it will break down or destroyed.
What is a piv drive?
Piv drive is piv drive
