Ques. 1JEE Main 2026, 28 January (Morning Shift)

Assuming in forward bias condition there is a voltage drop of 0.7 V across a silicon diode, the current through diode D1 in the circuit is mA. (Assume all diodes in the given circuit are identical) [figure]

  1. 17.6
  2. 18.8
  3. 20.15
  4. 11.7

Answer

(2) 18.8

Solution

The upper terminal of the cell is positive, so current flows through R1 towards the diodes.

D1 and D3 point from the upper wire to the lower wire forward biased.

D2 points the other way reverse biased, no current.

Voltage across the parallel forward-biased diodes = 0.7 V

I = 12 - 0.70.3 103 = 11.3300 A = 37.67 mA

D1 and D3 are identical the current divides equally.

ID1 = 37.672 18.8 mA
