In Simplified model we only consider barrier potential i.e., 0.7v when diode is forward biased, and we neglect resistance of diode.

But in Piecewise linear model we use that little resistance in addition.

What is simplified model?

Ideal device model: An ideal diode acts as a switch that conducts current in only one direction.

Piecewise linear model: This method is used to approximate the diode characteristic curve as a series of linear segments.
