by Tarun Agarwal 2 days ago What is Shockley Diode : Working & Its Applications Shockley diode was manufactured & marketed in late 1950 by Shockley Semiconductor Laboratory. The name of this diode was taken from the inventor namely William Bradford Shockley”. This diode was the first device from the thyristor...
by Tarun Agarwal 5 days 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...
by Tarun Agarwal 1 week ago What is Constant Current Diode : Working & Its Applications A diode is a polarized two-terminal electronic component that conducts the current within a single direction & blocks the flow of current in another direction because, in one direction, its resistance is ideally zero whereas in another...
by Tarun Agarwal 2 weeks ago What is Vacuum Diode : Working & Its Applications The first vacuum tube which is known as a vacuum diode was invented by a British scientist namely “Sir John Ambrose Fleming” in the year 1904. It is also called a thermionic tube or Fleming valve. This diode is made with vacuum tubes...
by Tarun Agarwal 2 weeks ago What is Diode Test : Working & Its Applications For beginners, they must have knowledge of electronic components & their working to troubleshoot any circuit or project. Similarly, having good knowledge of how to test different components is also one of the troubleshooting skills....
by Tarun Agarwal 3 weeks ago What is Capacitive Voltage Divider : Working & Its Applications Generally in electronics, a voltage divider or a potential divider is a passive linear circuit, used to provide an output voltage that is a part of its input voltage. Here, voltage division is the outcome of distributing the input voltage...
by Tarun Agarwal 3 weeks ago What is a Switching Diode : Working & Its Applications A diode is one kind of semiconductor device which includes two terminals like an anode and a cathode. The main function of the diode is to allow the current flow in one direction only because it has less resistance in one direction &...

Generally, resistors restrict the current flow within a circuit to implement resistance. The products based on Film...
by Tarun Agarwal 1 month ago What is a Thick Film Resistor : Working & Its Applications Thick Film Resistor`this resistor cannot be changed similar to a variable resistor because its resistance value can be determined at manufacturing time itself. The classification of these resistors can be done based on the process of manufacturing...
by Tarun Agarwal 1 month ago What is Braking Resistor : Working & Its Applications The controlling of speed in elevators, wind turbines, cranes, lifts, and electric locomotives is very necessary. So a braking resistor is an integral part of these applications because these are the most frequently used high power resistors...
