Q1:

As compared to an ordinary semiconductor diode, a Schottky diode

A has lower cut in voltage

B has higher cut in voltage

C lower reverse saturation current

D both (b) and (c)

ANS:B - has higher cut in voltage

Cut in voltage in Schottky diode is about 0.3 V as compared to 0.7 V in ordinary semiconductor diode.
