A diode fed with a constant current I=1mA has a voltage V = 690 mV at 20°C. Find the diode voltage at −20°C and at +85°C.

602.23mV at -20°C

852.88mV at +85°C

===> First, let's get the saturation current of the diode

The current (I) through a diode is given by;

I = x   ---------------------(i)

Where;

= saturation current of the diode

r =  

= thermal voltage

V = diode voltage

At 20°C, the thermal voltage () of a diode is 25 x 10⁻³V

From the question, the following are given;

At 20°C

I = 1mA = 1 x 10⁻³A

V = 690mV = 690 x 10⁻³V

Find the value of r by substituting the values of V and into the equation;

=> r =

=> r = (690 x 10⁻³) / (25 x 10⁻³)

=> r = 27.6

Substitute the values of r and I into equation (i) to give;

1 x 10⁻³ = x e²⁷°⁶

1 x 10⁻³ =  x 9.69 x 10¹¹

Solve for

= 1 x 10⁻³ / (9.69 x 10¹¹)

= 0.103 x 10⁻¹⁴A

= 1.03 x 10⁻¹⁵ A

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

===> Second, let's get the diode voltage at -20°C using the diode voltage formula as follow;

V = x ln (I / )              --------------------(ii)

Where;

V = diode voltage

= thermal voltage = k x T / q

k = Boltzmann's constant = 1.38 x 10⁻²³ Joules/kelvin

T = temperature = -20°C = 273 - 20 = 253K

q = absolute value of electron charge = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C.

I = diode current = 1mA = 1 x 10⁻³A

= saturation current (calculated above) = 1.03 x 10⁻¹⁵A

Solve for ;

= kT/ q

= 1.38 x 10⁻²³ x 253 / (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)

= 218.2 x 10⁻⁴V

Substitute these values into equation (ii)

V = 218.2 x 10⁻⁴ x ln [(1 x 10⁻³) / (1.03 x 10⁻¹⁵)]

V = 218.2 x 10⁻⁴ x ln (0.97 x 10¹²)

V = 218.2 x 10⁻⁴ x 27.6

V = 6022.32 x 10⁻⁴V

V = 602.23 x 10⁻³V

V = 602.23mV

Therefore, the diode voltage at -20°C is 602.23mV

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

===> Third, let's get the diode voltage at +85°C using the diode voltage formula as follow;

V = x ln (I / )              --------------------(ii)

Where;

V = diode voltage

= thermal voltage = k x T / q

k = Boltzmann's constant = 1.38 x 10⁻²³ Joules/kelvin

T = temperature = 85°C = 273 + 85 = 358K

q = absolute value of electron charge = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C.

I = diode current = 1mA = 1 x 10⁻³A

= saturation current (calculated above) = 1.03 x 10⁻¹⁵A

Solve for ;

= kT/ q

= 1.38 x 10⁻²³ x 358 / (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)

= 308.8 x 10⁻⁴V

Substitute these values into equation (ii)

V = 308.8 x 10⁻⁴ x ln [(1 x 10⁻³) / (1.03 x 10⁻¹⁵)]

V = 308.8 x 10⁻⁴ x ln (0.97 x 10¹²)

V = 308.8 x 10⁻⁴ x 27.6

V = 8522.88 x 10⁻⁴V

V = 852.88 x 10⁻³V

V = 852.88mV

Therefore, the diode voltage at +85°C is 852.88mV

d would be the most obvious choice to this question. leaders are supposed to herd their underlings like a shepherd to sheep. a leader should also listen to others when they are talking to one other to gain a better understanding of their mission and surroundings.
