The breakdown in a reverse-biased p-n junction diode is more likely to occur due to:
 
1. Large velocity of the minority charge carriers if the doping concentration is small.
2. Large velocity of the minority charge carriers if the doping concentration is large.
3. A strong electric field in a depletion region if the doping concentration is small.
4. Weak electric field in a depletion region if the doping concentration is small.

The circuit shown in figure is given an input signal \(V_i,\) which varies with time and the corresponding output is \(V_o.\) Then,
1. \(V_o=V_i+E\)
2. \(V_o=V_i-E\)
3. \(V_o=V_i,\) only when \(V_i>E\)
4. \(V_o=V_i,\) only when \(V_i<E\)
