Do diodes obey Ohm’s Law?
Ohm’s law is not always true
But for most electronic
components

• it is true
• or at least to a good enough
approximation
• or it is approximately true
under limited conditions
For diodes the third case is
occasionally useful

Resistors are simple to model
i.e. to calculate with
Diodes are more complicated
but we would still like a simple
model – even if an approximation

How do we model this?
What if this approximation isn’t good
enough?
What equivalent
circuit can we
have for the rule
of thumb of 0.7 V?
An ideal diode in
series with a 0.7 V

simulated by
a voltage
source and
an internal
resistance
Straight but sloping line
Behaves like a resistor but
for the offset

Another fairly simple approximation
It looks scary
but try analysing it
Ideal diode
This is of the form
exp(kV)
k is a horizontal
scaling factor
Actually quite
large
0.7 V
<0.7 V & Rs
Exact equation
Figure: Dr H. Eisele
2016/17
ELEC 1130 Dr C. Trayner
Except for tiny or
–ve V, this is
smaller than
exp(kV) and can
be ignored
This is just a
vertical scaling
factor
Actually very small

Exponentials – mysterious?
Exponentials – mysterious?
Consider ex (also written exp(x) )
e is just a number (about 2.718)
Compare with other examples of kx
2x: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, …
10x: 1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000, ...
These grow fast, the curve gets steeper
These are the same sort of curve
The k in kx is just a horizontal scaling factor
They can be continued the other way for –ve x:
2x: 1/16, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, …
10x: 0.0001, 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, 100, 1000,
10000, ...
As x gets more and more –ve, kx tends
asymptotically towards zero

So we have four models
When should you use which model?
Common sense should tell you
• Is the 0.7 V significant compared with the
voltages it will be handling?
• How much precision do you need?

What can you do with diodes?
The half-wave rectifier
Power supplies: PSUs, battery chargers, …
Mains is
• nominally sine wave (waveform may be a bit rough),
• 50 Hz or 60 Hz in some parts of the world
• typically around 230 V RMS
This needs to be reduced to low voltages and turned from
AC to DC
AC
provided
by transformer
Load receives DC
(would normally be
smoothed)
2016/17
ELEC 1130 Dr C. Trayner
Figure: Dr H. Eisele
Transformers reduce the voltage
• more complicated with switched-mode PSUs
Diodes are part of the AC to DC conversion

The full-wave rectifier bridge
Only uses the
+ve half
cycles
Four diodes
(the bridge)
Two conduct at
any time
• two for +ve
half cycle
• two for –ve
half cycle
50% of the time
is wasted

are forwardbiassed
• the black ones
are reversebiassed
• current flows
downwards
through the load

Half-wave vs full-wave
Rectifying and smoothing
Which is the more
economical (for a
given average
current)?
Discuss
Diodes only change from AC to DC
Leaves a very variable voltage
Needs smoothing
One capacitor will smooth it somewhat

Real power supplies
Traditionally you add a second capacitor (with a
resistor in between the two)
• This gave moderate smoothing with fairly large
capacitors
• but voltage dropped as loading current increased
2016/17
Figure: Dr H. Eisele
Still
somewhat
rough
ELEC 1130 Dr C. Trayner
33
Modern approach is a regulator chip
• only needs one capacitor
• keeps the voltage fixed
• also sets a current limit
