The i-v characteristic of a diode describes the relationship between the current flowing through the diode and the voltage across it. This characteristic is non-linear and is crucial for analyzing diode circuits. The forward bias region shows a rapid increase in current after the turn- on voltage, while the reverse bias region shows a very small leakage current.
The i-v characteristic of the diode in the circuit shown in Fig. 9 below is
