Hello everyone
I'm having troubles with a particular exercise in my notes about drawing a loadline on a 1N914 diode characteristic.
I'm supposed to draw to loadline to find the current flowing trough the system in order to solve the exercise, yet i don't know how to draw one on a logarithmic scale. I'll add the datasheet of the IN914 diode to this post.
The general exercise is:
"Look at the datasheet of the IN914 diode. What is the maximal DC current possible that can flow trough the component? Imagine you connect the diode in series with a 1kOhm resistor and a voltagesource of 1V:
a) What's the current flowing trough the system?
b) What is the static resistance (DC resistance) of the diode in this system?
c) What is the dynamic resistance of the diode in this system?
d) What is the dissipated power of the diode?
I hope you are able to help me with this question. From others I've heard that the intersection of the loadline with the diode characteristic is at (450mA; 575mV) and is best drawn on Figure4 of the datasheet.
