Hello,
This is my first post, but I have an issue understanding a topic. In my class, we discuss the constant voltage drop model which assumes a 0.7 voltage drop across silicon diodes (which is what we supposedly use in the class). However, in my labs, we are asked to calculate the diode voltage. Would this not be the 0.7 volts? If not, how would I go about calculating this value?
