A silicon (PN) junction at a temperature of 20°C has a reverse saturation current of 10 pico Ampere. The reverse saturation current at 40°C for the same bias is approximately.
Options
A. 30 pA
B. 40 pA
C. 50 pA
D. 60 pA
Correct Answer
40 pA
Explanation
By increasing of temperature by 10°C, Io become double so by increasing temperature 20°C, Io become 4 time than initial value... and it is 40 PA.
