Well met guys! This is Asma Mushtaq, an Electrical Engineer and a Lecturer. I have completed Masters from UET Lahore and B.E from LCWU (Lahore College for Women University). When I say teaching is my passion then I really mean it. I have more than 10 years of teaching experience. During this tenure, I have taught many subjects: Embedded Systems Design, Microprocessor Based Systems, Electronic Devices and Circuits, Digital Logic Design, Numerical Analysis, Linear Algebra and Electromagnetic Field Theory. I have completed my Thesis in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. My area of interest is inclined towards the automation, electronics and AI. I started the content creation two years back and now its my goal to bring out the best and provide the students from worldwide the valuable knowledge. you can contact me via email anytime for orders and queries [email protected]

Ideal, Complete and practical Diode Models with Solved Examples

Asma Mushtaq
complete diode models

This is the most simple approach where we treat the diode as an ideal element. By ideal we mean,  we will ignore the barrier potential of the diode that is 0.7v in case of silicon and 0.3 v in case of germanium when it is forward biased. So, when diode is forward biased, we will say infinite amount of current is flowing with zero voltage drop across its terminals. When it is reverse biased, we will say it has infinite resistance and hence zero leakage current across its terminal.
