Figure 4: Diode Circuit.
What is the simplest method to find the current passing through the diode? (hint: assume that
Vp is constant and that Vs is constant). Assume Vs = 10 V, andR 50 Ohms.
Based on the equation for the pn-junction shown above, what is the term that causes the non-
linearity in this system? Explain.
How does this non-linearity affect the calculations for this circuit?

Set up the voltage source (V,) to 1.9 V (VDC). Then measure the value of the current flowing
in the circuit and the voltage across the diode.
