This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. Front-end limiter circuits using Schottky and PIN diodes can provide needed protection in communications and other RF systems. However, ...

PIN diodes are often used as variable attenuators for RF signals in TV tuners, and for wideband RF in fixed equipment. These diodes can be mounted as discrete devices on a board, or integrated into ...

PIN diodes, which sandwich a lightly doped intrinsic (I) region between heavily doped P and N regions, are used extensively in RF and microwave applications. Common applications of PIN diodes are ...

The trouble with fixing electronics is that most devices are just black boxes — literally. Tear it down, look inside, but it usually doesn’t matter — all you see are black epoxy blobs, taunting you ...

Researchers demonstrated a novel technique to efficiently convert ambient low-power radiofrequency signals into DC power. This 'rectifier' technology can be easily integrated into energy harvesting ...
