Why is the reverse bias current extremely small? When a diode is reverse biased, the width of the depletion region increases. Minority carriers of each material are pushed through the depletion zone to the junction. This action causes a very small leakage current to occur. What is the reverse breakdown voltage of a diode? Reverse […]
