Junction Capacitance / Depletion Layer Capacitance Calculator
Calculate the junction capacitance using the equation:
\[
C = A \sqrt{\frac{q\,\epsilon_s\,N}{2\,(V_{bi}+V_R)}}
\]
where:
– \( \epsilon_s \) is the semiconductor permittivity (F/m),
– \( A \) is the junction area (m²),
– \( N \) is the doping concentration (m\(^{-3}\)),
– \( V_{bi} \) is the built‑in potential (V), and
– \( V_R \) is the reverse bias voltage (V).
