Tunnel Diode Construction and Working: Tunnel Diode Construction and Working - The tunnel diode (sometimes called the Esaki diode after its inventor, Dr. Leo Esaki) is a high conductivity, heavily…
Zener Diode Application: Zener diodes have numerous applications in transistor circuitry. Some of their common Zener Diode Application are explained below. 1. Zener Diode as a Voltage Regulator:Â Voltage regulation is…
Construction and Working of Zener Diode: Zener diode, also sometimes called the breakdown diode, is a P-N junction diode specially designed for operation in the breakdown region in reverse bias…
PN Diode Switching Times: A P-N junction diode may be used as an electrical switch. The electrical circuit can be made 'on' and 'off' by forward biasing or reverse biasing…
Diode as a Circuit Element: Diode as a Circuit Element - The P-N junction diode is considered as a circuit element. One of the most important application of diode is…
Up Down Circuit Analysis: Any circuit has independent variables (such as source voltages and branch resistances) and dependent variables (such as voltage drop across resistors, current and power). Determination of…
Breakdown Voltage of PN Junction Diode: When an ordinary P-N junction diode is reverse biased, normally only very small reverse saturation current flows. This current is due to movement of…
Explain Steady State Conditions in Semiconductor: Explain Steady State Conditions in Semiconductor - When the P-N junction is forward biased, current flows quite freely P to N in a P-N…
