Forward Bias --- External battery makes the Anode more positive than
the Cathode --- Current flows in the direction of the arrow in the
symbol.
Reverse Bias --- External battery makes the Cathode more positive
than the Anode --- A tiny current flows opposite to the arrow in the
symbol.

Ideal PN Junction Diode V-I Characteristic
• Due to differences
between devices,
each diode has a
different voltage
across it.
• Would like to
“Equalize” the
voltages.

• Is = Is1+IR1 = Is2+IR2
• IR1 = VD1/R1
• IR2 = VD2/R2 = VD1/R2
• Is1+VD1/R1 = IS2+VD1/R2
• Let R = R1 = R2
• Is1 + VD1/R = Is2 +VD2/R
• VD1 + VD2 = Vs
