Typical values: 10-12 to 10-16 A. Interestingly, the graph of this equation looks just like the figure to the left.A non-ideality factor n times kT/q is often included.Slide 3EE100 Summer 2008 Bharathwaj MuthuswamyDiode Ideal (Perfect Rectifier) ModelThe equationis graphed below for 1)kTqVexp(II0A10I150The characteristic is described as a “rectifier” – that is, a device that permits current to pass in only one direction. (The hydraulic analog is a “check value”.) Hence the symbol: VISimple “Perfect Rectifier” ModelIf we can ignore the small forward-bias voltage drop of a diode, a simple effective model is the “perfect rectifier,” whose I-V characteristic is given below:VIReverse bias0Vany ,0I Forward bias0Iany ,0V A perfect rectifier0246810-5 0 5 10Current in mAForward Voltage in VSlide 4EE100 Summer 2008 Bharathwaj MuthuswamyI-V CharacteristicsIn forward bias (+ on p-side) we have almost unlimited flow (very low resistance).
