This application note describes the diode selection process and snubber design for high voltage inverting flyback converter for subscriber-line interface card (SLIC) applications. Critical diode ...

Here are a number of alternative ways to avoid problems when driving Varactor Diodes. Varactor (or “varicap”) diodes are used primarily in radio-frequency (RF) circuits to provide a capacitance that ...

[Hales] has been on a mission for a while to make his own diodes and put them to use and now he’s succeeded with diodes made of sodium bicarbonate and water, aluminum tape and soldered copper. By ...

In a world first, researchers at Nagoya University in Japan have successfully developed a resonant tunnel diode (RTD) that ...

Transistors are the fundamental building blocks behind today's electronic revolution, powering everything from smartphones to powerful servers by controlling the flow of electrical currents. But ...

ProTek Devices has introduced an ultra-low capacitance steering diode array that provides circuit protection against electrostatic discharge (ESD), electrical fast transients (EFT), and secondary ...
