Q
Q: The forward bias condition in a diode occurs when: (2020)
Solution:
In forward bias, the anode is connected to a higher potential than the cathode, allowing current to flow.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what a diode is. A diode is a component that allows current to flow in one direction only.
Step 2: Identify the two terminals of the diode: the anode (positive side) and the cathode (negative side).
Step 3: Know what 'forward bias' means. It means connecting the anode to a higher voltage than the cathode.
Step 4: When the anode is at a higher potential than the cathode, it allows current to flow through the diode.
Step 5: Remember that in forward bias, the diode conducts electricity, allowing current to pass.
