A diode is a tiny component with a powerful job—controlling the direction of electrical current. This video explains how ...

When looking across the discrete components in your electronic armory, it is easy to overlook the humble diode. After all, one can be forgiven for the conclusion that the everyday version of this ...

A compact 402 nm laser pushes power and lifespan higher without expanding its footprint.

We might tend to take the word “diode” for granted if we’re thinking of a “diode” as just a two-lead or two-terminal device that gets used in this or that place for this or that purpose. It can become ...

Diodes Incorporated (Diodes) (Nasdaq: DIOD) today introduces the AP61406Q, a new 5.5V, 4A member with I2C interface of its low quiescent current (IQ), automotive-compliant* synchronous buck converters ...

The basis of a solid-state diode laser is, of course, the diode. Laser diodes can have different emission wavelength—most of them have between 405 nm to 808 nm. The diodes usually have TO3, TO5, TO9, ...

The superconducting diode effect allows for nonreciprocal, dissipationless transport. It has the potential to enhance transfer current efficiency compared to the traditional semiconducting equivalent ...

Making an oscilloscope is relatively easy, while making a very fast oscilloscope is hard. There’s a trick that converts a mundane instrument into a very fast one, it’s been around since the 1950s, and ...

A diode is a device that allows electric current to flow in only one direction, from its anode towards its cathode but not the other way around. There is plenty of online material explaining diode ...

Bourns, Inc. unveiled its 5.0SMDJ Series Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) Diodes. Available in a space-saving, compact ...
