by Tarun Agarwal 2 years ago What is Breakdown Voltage in Junction Diodes & Zener Diode Depending upon their electrical characteristics, materials are categorized as Conductors, Semiconductors, and Insulators. Conductors are materials that can conduct electricity easily. In contrast, the materials that cannot conduct any electricity...
by Tarun Agarwal 5 years ago What is a Rectifier Diode : Working & Its Applications Diodes are widely used semiconductor devices. A rectifier diode is a two-lead semiconductor that allows current to pass in only one direction. Generally, the P-N junction diode is formed by joining together n-type and p-type semiconductor...
by Tarun Agarwal 5 years ago What is Light Emitting Diode : Working & Its Applications The Light-emitting diode is a two-lead semiconductor light source. In 1962, Nick Holonyak has come up with the idea of a light-emitting diode, and he was working for the general electric company. The LED is a special type of diode and they...
by Tarun Agarwal 5 years ago An Overview on Different Types of Diodes and Their Uses A diode is a two-terminal electrical device, that allows the transfer of current in only one direction. The diode is also known for its unidirectional current property, where the electric current is permitted to flow in one direction. A...
by Tarun Agarwal 6 years ago What is a Photodiode : Working Principle & Its Characteristics A photodiode is a PN-junction diode that consumes light energy to produce an electric current. Sometimes it is also called a photo-detector, a light detector, and photo-sensor. These diodes are particularly designed to work in reverse bias...
by Tarun Agarwal 6 years ago Difference Between Impatt Diode and Trapatt Diode and Baritt Diode Ever since the expansion of current semiconductor device theory scientists have wondered about whether it is achievable to make a two terminal negative resistance device. In 1958 WT read revealed the concept of avalanche diode. There are...
by Tarun Agarwal 6 years ago Tunnel Diode Circuit with Operations and Applications A Tunnel Diode is also known as Eskari diode and it is a highly doped semiconductor that is capable of very fast operation. Leo Esaki invented the Tunnel diode in August 1957. The Germanium material is basically used to make tunnel diodes....
by Tarun Agarwal 7 years ago What is a Zener Diode : Circuit & Its Working The diode is one of the basic components in electronic circuits. When you want to know about voltage considerations you should know about the diodes. The diode is basically made up of semiconductors that have two characteristics, ‘P’...
by Tarun Agarwal 8 years ago Best 3 Applications Involving in Zener Diode Working Functionality Zener diodes are normal PN junction diodes operating in a reverse-biased condition. Working of the Zener diode is similar to a PN junction diode in forwarding biased condition, but the uniqueness lies in the fact that it can also conduct...
