PIN diodes are ideal for transmit-receive (TR) switches because of a favorable blend of cost, size, and switching speed. Although the PIN diode in the transmit (Tx) arm can be connected as either ...

This application note describes the diode selection process and snubber design for high voltage inverting flyback converter for subscriber-line interface card (SLIC) applications. Critical diode ...

Diodes Incorporated has introduced a family of high-speed switching diodes in a choice of small footprint, low-profile packages, enabling significant reductions in component count and PCB area. Diodes ...

In the realm of modern electronics, semiconductor diodes have emerged as fundamental components with diverse applications. One of their pivotal roles lies in the fields of rectification and voltage ...

Some groups have coaxed modest numbers of electrons through plastics using quantum mechanical effects, but only by painstakingly manipulating individual molecules at cryogenic temperatures. But a ...

Abstract: A novel silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) triggered by multiple polysilicon diodes (MPDTSCR) is proposed and investigated for electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection in low- and ...

A diode design can make terahertz signals stronger & work better, helping build smaller devices for imaging, sensing, and wireless communication.

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).

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 ...
