Diode is a versatile electronic component, many specialized types of diodes exist, each optimized for specific applications such as voltage regulation, light emission, high-speed switching, and detection. It is one of the most fundamental semiconductor devices used in electronics. It plays a critical role in controlling the direction of current flow in a circuit. From […]
There are various kinds of diode used in day today electronics devices. here are some widely used diode with their symbol representation and basic idea about them, like how they work and their uses.
The definition of diode is very simple, “A diode is a two-terminal polarized electronic component which mainly conducts current in one direction and blocks in other direction”. Its resistance in one direction is low (ideally zero) and high (ideally infinite) resistance in the other direction. There are various types of Diodes like Zener, Schottky, tunnel, […]
