Hi guys,
I'm trying to find a reliable formula for calculating the depletion depth in a PIN diode at a given voltage and knowing the doping of the layers. Does anyone have one? Formulae for the PN diode are common, but don't apply to the PIN directly as far as I can see.
I found a formula from here http://ece-www.colorado.edu/~bart/book/book/chapter4/pdf/ch4_3_6.pdf but I think the vaules that it gives are rather small considering the voltage. (?)
Cheers,
