1. P-N junction forward bias characteristics Determine the forward bias characteristics of a specific P-N Junction diode. The diagram in figure 1 shows the arrangements for the voltage and current measurements.

First, complete the current measurements for the voltage steps given in table 1. V1 XMMI D1 1N4148 Figure 1 Table 1 XMM2 Vd (V) 0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 0.8 0.9 1 1 V2 1.00V 0 PR1+ REF1- ld (A) REF1 1N4148 PR2 Mutisim Live-SU_Diode Circuit 1 Plot the data generated in table 1 (preferably using Microsoft Excel). Extrapolate the straight-line part of the graph to intercept the voltage axis and estimate the tum on voltage for the diode tested. Can you estimate the resistance of this diode? How do the results in this experiment align with the theory of the operation of this device?
