Under normal conditions a diode conducts current when it is_______.

  1. Reverse-Biased.
  2. Forward-Biased.
  3. Avalanched.
  4. Saturated.

Answer – B. Forward-Biased

Under normal conditions, a diode conducts current when it is Forward-Biased.

Solution:

The detailed solution to the question, Under normal conditions a diode conducts current when it is _________is provided here. 

A normal diode is forward-biased when the anode potential is greater than the cathode potential. When P-type is connected to the positive terminal and N-type is connected to the negative terminal of the battery, is considered as the Diode is forward biased. Under the forward bias, the diode conducts the current from P to N. In other words, when the current through the diode is positive then the diode is considered to be in forwarding Biased, and the diode is replaced with a short circuit while solving the circuit problem ideally.

Therefore, under normal conditions, a diode conducts current when it is Forward-Biased. Hence, Option (B) is the correct answer.
