Two diodes are connected in series as shown in Figure 2.11a to share a total de reverse volt age of VD=5 KV. The reverse leakage currents of two diode I=25 mA, 1,2 = 30 mA. (a) Find the diode voltage if the voltage sharing resistances R₁ and R₂ are equal R₁ = R₂ = 200 KN. (b) Find the voltage sharing resistance R₁ and R₂ if the diode voltage are equal Vd1= Vd2= Vd/2
