Question

In a forward bias arrangement of a p-n junction diode, the ______.

Options

• n-region is connected to the positive terminal of the battery.

• p-region is connected to the positive terminal of the battery.

• the direction of conventional current is from the n-region to the p-region in the diode.

• p-region is connected to the negative terminal of the battery.

Answer 1

In a forward bias arrangement of a p-n junction diode, the p-region is connected to the positive terminal of the battery.

Explanation:

The positive terminal of the battery is connected to the p-region of a p-n junction diode, and the negative terminal is connected to the n-region. The p-region of the diode is where conventional current flows and the n-region is where it exits.
