A crystal diode utilises ................. characteristic for rectification
Correct answer: B. forward
- A. reverse
- B. forward
- C. forward or reverse
- D. none of the above
Explanation
Rectification uses the diode's forward characteristic, in which current flows readily in one direction while reverse current is very small. The reverse characteristic mainly provides blocking, not the conducting path for rectification.
