\section{Introduction} This assignment is designed to help us understand how a diode works when forward and reverse biased. The same scenario would be applied using a Light Emitting Diode(LED). The ...

The I-V diagram of a tunnel diode inherits a voltage range corresponding to a specific current domain with a negative slope. Within this range, the electric resistance is negatively impacting the ...

Here is the simple diode circuit and the I-V characteristic curve of a diode. The circuit shows a diode connected in series with a resistor and a DC voltage source. The I-V characteristic curve ...

As the design engineer of Touchstone Semiconductor’s TS1001 – a 0.8V/0.6µA operational amplifier – I thought it a good idea to show some applications examples that may be less obvious and are really ...

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 ...

Abstract: This brief presents two new equivalent circuit schemes for triple-diode solar cell models (TDM). These schemes enable the formulation of an analytical relationship between current and ...

Abstract: Based on the partitioned-charge-based modeling approach, a general non-quasi-static dynamic charge element is derived to simulate both transient behavior and high-frequency characteristics ...

ROHM has developed an innovative Schottky barrier diode that overcomes the conventional trade-off between VF and IR. This way, it provides high reliability protection for a wide range of ...

A YouTuber has developed a combat suit featuring a spinal battery system designed for improved power efficiency and reliability. The system includes voltage regulation, overcurrent protection, and ...
