If the doping level of a crystal diode is increased, the breakdown voltage__________________?
Correct answer: C. is decreased
- A. remains the same
- B. is increased
- C. is decreased
- D. none of the above
Explanation
Heavier doping narrows the depletion region and causes breakdown at a lower reverse voltage, especially in a Zener-type junction. Therefore, the breakdown voltage decreases.
