Can anyone please tell about the typical (practical) values of depletion capacitance in forward and reverse bias, and also of diffusion capacitance in forward bias?
Thanks in Advance
 

Here is how to calculate that...
**broken link removed**
Anyway while designing circuits I never needed that, the total capacitance is enough for my designing needs and it can be found in datasheets. Can I know for what purpose (application) you need this value?

Good luck
 

typical values of transition and diffusion capacitances lie in the range 3-8 pF and 0.05-5 nF respectively...

Thanks srikanth1555, it was helpful.
debjit625, I didn't need it for any purpose, it just came out of curiosity, that when we can neglect one in front of the other, so for this I needed some practical values of both of them.
