Question

From the given circuit diagram, what is the value of diode current?

(a) 8 mA

(b) 7.3 mA

(c) 0 mA

(d) 7 mA

I got this question during a job interview.

My enquiry is from Diode Approximations and Series Connection topic in section Diode Circuit of Analog Circuits

Answer 1

Right option is (c) 0 mA

The best I can explain: As both the diodes are reverse biased, the current in the circuit is zero.
