The PCI clamp diode limitsthe voltage to a level that doesn’t harmthe input, and the resistance value limitsthe current to a safe level that doesn’tharm the PCI clamp diode. This approachworks well in ...

The four-layer diode was the key to William Shockley's plan to revolutionize AT&T's phone system. It was a great device in theory, but not in practice -- at least not at the time when Shockley ...

Several techniques exist, but [Wolfgang] over at the Electronic Projects for Fun blog decided to go for the classic method of using a vacuum diode. He describes the design and analysis of a noise ...

Claimed to be the first-ever “magnetic field diode”, a device in which one wire coil can transfer its magnetic field to a second coil, but not the other way around has been created by Jordi Prat-Camps ...

Examining the superconducting diode effect Date: October 2, 2023 Source: ARC Centre of Excellence in Future Low-Energy Electronics Technologies Summary: Scientists have reviewed the ...

It might better be described as a ‘nearly ideal diode controller’ as it draws some current from the output circuit when no input is connected – 147μA if a 12V battery is connected to the output in the ...
