🔍 Key Concepts

• Forward bias vs. reverse bias operation of a diode • What electrical ratings protect the diode from overheating or breakdown • Meaning of PIV (peak inverse voltage) in a rectifier circuit

💭 Think About

• When a diode is conducting normally, which rating limits how much current you can safely push through it? • When the diode is reverse-biased in a rectifier circuit, which voltage-related rating must not be exceeded to avoid breakdown? • Of the listed options, which pair best describes these two limiting conditions: too much current in forward direction and too much voltage in reverse direction?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice includes a limit on forward current (when the diode is conducting). • Identify which choice includes a limit on the reverse voltage the diode can withstand (often called PIV). • Make sure you are not picking a parameter that is important but not usually one of the primary nameplate ratings for basic power/rectifier diodes (like small leakage current or capacitance).
