Ge and Si diodes start conducting at 0.3 V and 0.7 V respectively. In the following figure if Ge diode connection are reversed, the value of $\mathrm{V}_0$ changes by: (assume that the Ge diode has large breakdown voltage)
Select the correct option:
A
0.2 V
B
0.4 V
C
0.6 V
D
0.8 V
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Incorrect. Try again or view the solution.
Solution
Voltage drop across diode will change from 0.3 to 0.7 V.
Value of V0 changes by 0.4 V.
