Two identical P-N junctions are connected in series in three different ways as shown below to a battery. The potential drop across the P-N junctions are equal in

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

If the p-n junctions are identical, then their resistances would be same. In circuit 1 , the first p-n function is forward biased and second is reverse biased. Hence the voltages across them would be different. In circuit 2 both are reverse biased. So potential drop would be same. In circuit 3 both are forward biased; again voltages would be same.
