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

To measure a zener diode’s breakdown voltage, you need a dc voltage source whose voltage exceeds that of the zener voltage. In Figure 1, resistor R SER provides voltage drop between V IN and V ZEN. In ...

The diode is a fundamental component you must understand if you want to grow your electronics prowess. So today, we’re going to take a quick look at what a diode is, then look at 4½ uses for a diode ...

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 ...

Most plastics don't conduct electricity, though that hasn't stopped researchers from trying to build plastic computer chips. Some groups have coaxed modest numbers of electrons through plastics using ...
