This video explains how diodes function as directional components in electronic circuits. Diodes allow current to flow in ...

Expensive semiconductor laser diodes have no tolerance for fast voltage or current transients. To minimize the risk of damage, a standard JFET-clamp circuit shorts the laser when there is no supply ...

[Hales] has been on a mission for a while to make his own diodes and put them to use and now he’s succeeded with diodes made of sodium bicarbonate and water, aluminum tape and soldered copper. By ...

Atomtronics has the goal of developing a one-to-one analogy of electronic systems, components and devices with ultracold atoms trapped in optical lattices It is being researched at the University of ...

This is a simple fire alarm circuit using Germanium Diode and 555 timer. In this circuit Germanium Diode plays very important role in detecting the fire.This is a simple fire alarm circuit using ...

This circuit was designed to meet a medical application’s requirement to drive a laser diode with reasonable precision and a minimum of components and footprint (the device is now in clinical trials).

Electromagnetic waves with frequencies between microwave and infrared light, also known as terahertz radiation, are leveraged ...

Normally, when you want a low DC voltage from the AC line, you think about using a transformer of some kind. [RCD66] noticed that an AC monitor meter must have some sort of power supply but had no ...
