Current-voltage Relation
The relation between the diode current and
voltage can be written as:
VDQ = dc quiescent voltage
If vd << VT, the equation can be
expanded into linear series as:
vd = ac component
The -1 term in the equation is neglected.
The equation can be written as:

The DC diode current Is:
ECE 1231
iD = ID [ 1 + vd/VT]
iD = ID + ID vd / VT = ID + id
where id = ID vd / VT
using Ohm’s law:
I = V/R hence, id = vd / rd compare with id = ID vd / VT
which reveals that rd = VT / ID
CONCLUSION: During AC analysis the diode is
equivalent to a resistor, rd
