Semiconductor Basics & Applications Test

This document contains an internal test for first year aeronautical engineering students at Hindusthan Institute of Technology in Coimbatore, India. The test has two parts: Part A contains 10 multiple choice questions worth 2 marks each about semiconductors, PN junctions, diodes, and rectifiers. Part B contains 3 long answer questions worth 10 marks each, asking students to either explain concepts like P and N type semiconductors, the formation of a junction diode, energy bands in materials, or the working of circuits like a bridge rectifier or common base BJT configuration.
