Why diodes matter in every circuit

Diodes let electricity flow in only one direction, protecting and controlling how circuits work. This video explains what ...
Diodes are tiny components that allow electricity to flow in only one direction. In this video, you'll learn how diodes work, what makes them unique, and why they're essential in protecting electronic ...
Designing automotive electronics presents numerous technical challenges, including the need to protect against electrical hazards under the hood and in the cabin. The three major sources of electrical ...
Designed to control the frequency of crystal oscillator circuits, the 3022 series of high-ratio, hyperabrupt varactor tuning diodes is designed to deliver a dc bias control voltage from -0.3V to -4V.
Although they are usually limited to only two leads, rectifiers and diodes play an important role in power electronic systems. In 2011, many types of rectifier/diodes were introduced, from bridge ...
This digital thermometer circuit diagram uses a common 1N4148 diode as the temperature sensor. The temperature coefficient of the diode, -2 mV/°C is exploited for this application to create an ...
