Very nice as usual ❤❤

Cathode voltage =/= 0V

[@justinhensley108]

An ideal germanium diode will still have a voltage drop of like .3 volts..... correct answer is .3 volts and 57 mA. You should redo this video.

[@allaboutelectronics-quiz]

The ideal diode has zero forward voltage drop and zero forward resistance. Therefore, here diode D1 is represented with short circuit.

[@sibilakshman9575]

How can it be ideal and germanium at the same time 😂

[@justinhensley108]

​ @sibilakshman9575 Oh I don't Know 9 seconds into the video if you read the paragraph above the circuit it says "ideal" germanium diode (no such thing see the link). So he has to pick either I have a superconductor, or a germanium diode. Can't have both.

@@justinhensley108 @allaboutelectronics Yeah that's what I am asking how can a diode be ideal and germanium at the same time 😀 ?

[@allaboutelectronics-quiz]

I agree, the question could have been framed a little bit more specifically. In the question, I should have specified that, the D1 has zero forward voltage drop to avoid this confusion.

2:15 how the voltage will be zero,there is an input voltage 6 volts right

[@allaboutelectronics-quiz]

Of course the input is 6V, but here this voltage V is the voltage across the diode. Since it acts a short circuit (being ideal diode), the voltage across it will be zero. If you measure the voltage across 100 ohm resistor, then it will be 6V.

[@ssmbfire]

But in the question they mentioned that in the circuit,not across the diode

[@allaboutelectronics-quiz]

@@ssmbfire But as you can see from the figure, the V is the voltage across the diode in the given circuit.

Fine👍,sir
