alleryA p-n junction diode is forward biased when:
AThe p-side is at higher potential than the n-side of the chip
BThe n-side is at higher potential than the p-side strongly
CBoth p and n are kept at the same potential always here
DNo external voltage is applied to the diode at any point
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. The p-side is at higher potential than the n-side of the chip
Forward bias: p-side connected to the positive terminal (higher potential than n-side); current flows.
