Question

A good diode checked by a multimeter should indicate:

• A. high resistance in reverse bias and a low resistance in forward bias
• B. high resistance in both forward bias and reverse bias
• C. low resistance in both reverse bias and forward bias
• D. high resistance in forward bias and low resistance in reverse bias

Hint:

While checking a diode with a multimeter: \[ \text{Forward Bias} \Rightarrow \text{Low Resistance} \] \[ \text{Reverse Bias} \Rightarrow \text{High Resistance} \] If both readings are low, the diode is shorted. If both readings are high, the diode is open or damaged.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A
