The V-I characteristic of a p-n junction diode is shown, marking breakdown voltage Vᵦ and knee voltage Vₖ. Which conclusion is correct? Image

Options

• Option A

  The forward bias resistance of diode is very high; almost infinity for small values of V and after a certain value it becomes very low.

• Option B

  The reverse bias resistance of diode is very high in the beginning up to breakdown voltage is not achieved.

• Option C

  Both forward and reverse bias resistances are same for all voltages.

• Option D

  Both (1) and (2) are correct.
