Thermionic diodes are the most widely used diodes because of their
small size and weight. - correct_answFalse



Some elements commonly used for creating P-type material are
phosphorous, arsenic, bismuth, and antimony. - correct_answFalse



Holes are the missing electrons in a crystal structure. -
correct_answTrue



Typical elements used for doping a crystal to create N-Type material are
boron, gallium, and indium - correct_answFalse



Diodes have the ability to block electron flow in the direction and pass
electrons in the opposite direction. - correct_answTrue



A diode has relatively high resistance in the forward bias direction in a
low resistance in the reverse bias direction - correct_answFalse

, A diode characteristic curve indicates the response of a diode when
subjected to different forward and reverse bias voltages. -
correct_answTrue



Once the depletion region is closed, resistance across the diode is very
low and current increases rapidly. - correct_answTrue



A replacement diode should have at least the same forwards current
rating as the original diode. - correct_answTrue



In most cases, diodes are tested with a digital multimeter (DMM) -
correct_answTrue



Diode testing includes determining the quality of P-type and N-type
material. - correct_answFalse



A DMM set to measure voltage can be used to determine which end of
a diode is the cathode and which end is the anode. - correct_answFalse



The best way to test a diode is to measure the voltage drop across the
diode when it is reverse biased. - correct_answFalse
