Lab 8 The Diode Objective: Measure the current-voltage curve of a silicon diode.
Reverse current
- Construct the circuit below using a DC power supply, a diode.
- attach an Oscilloscope set to 1M input impedence as shown in the circuit diagram. The oscilloscope will serve as a Resistor to measure the voltage across the diode and calculate the current.
- Measure the diode reverse current as a function of the DC supply voltage.
