Transition and Diffusion Capacitance: Transition and Diffusion Capacitance - Electronic devices are inherently sensitive to very high frequencies. Most shunt capacitive effects that can be ignored at lower frequencies due…
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…
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…
Metal Semiconductor Junctions: Metal semiconductor junctions are very common in all semiconductor devices and are very important. Depending upon the doping concentration, materials, and the characteristics of the interface, the…
Thyratron Working Principle: Thyratron is a hot cathode gas filled triode. Normally it is filled with a small amount of inert gas such as argon, hydrogen, neon or mercury vapour.…
Construction of Phanotron: The constriction of a gas-filled diode or phanotron is similar to a vacuum diode except that the size of its electrodes is larger so as to conduct…
Vacuum Triode, Construction and Working: Construction of Vacuum Triode - The construction and the schematic symbol used for a vacuum triode are illustrated in Fig. 5.8. It, as the name…
What is Secondary Emission? When a beam of high velocity electrons suddenly strikes a metallic surface, they give up their kinetic energy to electrons and atoms which they strike. Some…
