by Tarun Agarwal 4 years ago Schottky Barrier Rectifiers Working and Its Applications The Schottky diode or Schottky Barrier Rectifier is named after the German physicist “Walter H. Schottky”, is a semiconductor diode designed with a metal by the semiconductor junction. It has a low-forward voltage drop and a very rapid...
by Tarun Agarwal 4 years ago Different Types of Rectifiers & Their Working In a large number of electrical and electronic circuits, DC voltage is required for its operation. We can simply alter the AC voltage into DC voltage by using a device called a PN junction diode. One of the most significant applications...
by Tarun Agarwal 9 years ago Silicon Controlled Rectifiers – Basics, Operation & Applications Modern power electronics truly began with the advent of thyristors. Thyristors are also known as the silicon controlled rectifiers or SCRs. These are four layered and three-terminal semiconductor devices. And thyristors are unidirectional...
by Tarun Agarwal 1 month ago What is Signal Diode : Working & Its Applications Diodes are frequently used as simple rectifiers, switches to open or close a circuit, and mixers in the signal compounding. When the diodes are used in the mixers to detect the signals are known as signal diodes. At present, these diodes...
by Tarun Agarwal 2 months ago What is Small Signal Diode : Working & Its Applications A diode is one type of semiconductor device that allows the flow of current only in one direction from anode to cathode. So these are used in different application circuits like AC-DC rectifier, logic, AM detection, level-shift, snubbers...

It is configured by connecting two transistors together, which means, the emitter terminal...
by Tarun Agarwal 7 months ago What is an Inverting Op Amp : Working & Its Applications The configuration of an op-amp or operational amplifier can be done in two ways like inverting op-amp and non-inverting op-amp. In either of these configurations, the output is given back to its input which is called feedback. This feedback...
