I am not familiar with circuit analysis, although I can manage to solve basic circuit. However, I am currently stuck with a problem and I am not sure about the solutions.
If anyone could quickly give me the solutions to compare them with minehave a look at my solutions I would highly appreciate it.
By using circuit logic I assumed D1 to be OFF and D2 ON. From there, we KVL and current division rules to find the total current I:
10.7 - I*R1 - 0.7 - 0.25I*R2 - I*R3 = 0 and derive I = 1.08 mA
From here we have the following:
V1 = 10.7 - R1*I = 4.22V
V2 = V1 - 0.7 = 3.52V
V3 = V2 - 0.25I*3 = 2.71V
V4 = V2 -0.75I*1 = 2.71V
We note that V1 > V4 therefore D1 is indeed reverse biased.
For some reason I am not sure about these results, this is my first problem of the sort.
Here is the problem:
