Question:
A pn junction diode is in series with a \(1 \mathrm{M} \Omega\) resistor and a \(2.8 \mathrm{~V}\) power supply. The reverse-saturation current of the diode is \(I_{S}=5 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{~A}\).
(a) Determine the diode current and voltage if the diode is forward biased.
(b) Repeat part (a) if the diode is reverse biased.
