Why Is Leakage Current Less In Silicon?

Why Is Leakage Current Less In Silicon? Leakage current is less in silicon made devices than germanium made since its energy bandgap is more than that of germanium. What is silicon leakage current? An important conduction limitation of PN junction diode is leakage current. When a diode is reverse biased, the width of the depletion

What Would The GFCI Do In A Case Where Electrical Current Leakage From The Circuit Occurs? How does a GFCI work? The GFCI will “sense” the difference in the amount of electricity flowing into the circuit to that flowing out, even in amounts of current as small as 4 or 5 milliamps. The GFCI reacts
