In the reverse-bias condition, the negative terminal of the source is connected to the anode side of the circuit and the positive terminal is connected to the cathode side.

Can a pn junction diode be used as an amplifier?
Never. It is impossible to use diodes for amplification.
When a 3.3V zener diode and a 5V zener diode are connected in parallel what is the average reverse break down voltage?
There will be no "average" reverse breakdown voltage. When the applied voltage reaches 3.3v, the 3.3v zener will conduct and the voltage will go no higher. The 5v zener will never conduct because the voltage across it will never go higher than 3.3v The only way the 5 volt zener will ever conduct is if the 3.3v zener fails. ALAN H.

How is the capacitor able to account for AC Ripples?
Ripple Voltage is voltage variation across the load and it is the AC component. To answer this question, consider a Half Wave rectifier with a smoothing capacitor: This rectifier will consist of a sinusoidal voltage source, an ideal diode, a capacitor in parallel with the load. At t=0, the voltage across capacitor = load voltage When the circuit is switched on, the capacitor is fully charged as the sinusoidal source reaches its peak. However, the sinusoidal nature causes the source voltage to decline after reaching the peak. This means that no current will flow through the diode. But the capacitor is still charged. So this will supply current to the load while it discharges. But during the discharging period (till the sinusoidal picks up again), the load voltage is an exponential function = peak voltage *exp-[(t - t')*resistance of load*capacitance] Now a key point is that the pulsating current is flowing through the diode to recharge the capacitor. Because of this constant charge and discharge of the capacitor in the cycle, the load voltage has AC ripples. At the same time load current is never zero and is directly prop to load voltage. The dc component >> ac component and the ripple voltage is greatly reduced by the capacitance esp a large one. You can minimize these by choosing a large capacitance. This is how a capacitor accounts for AC ripples. You can never actually rid these ripples even if you use a full-wave rectifier! Google search half - wave rectifier graphs on the ripples to understand this!! --- Sona
When wiring a bridge rectifier where does the black and white wire go from the AC source and where does the DC - get connected to assuming no capacitor is used but the DC - just goes to a cell?
If your bridge rectifier doesn't have the symbols on the package to tell you how to hook it up, you will have to identify the bridge connections to hook it up properly. Let's look at a case with four discrete diodes and explain that. Then you should be able to take that to the full wave bridge and hook it up. Four similar diodes properly rated are going to be used in a bridge rectifier. The diodes have symbols on them, and the symbol is an arrow pointing to a flat line. The flat line is the n end of the p-n junction of that diode. Another way to say this is that the arrow points to the n-type material. The end behind the arrow is the p end of the p-n junction. On a diode, the "band" around the component is the end the arrow points to, or the n end of the diode - the n-type material end of the device. Connect the n ends of two diodes together. That means two diodes will have their arrows pointing at each other. That point of the bridge is the positive (+) side of the bridge. Now take a diode and connect it to one of the open leads of the two diodes connected together. Make sure the diode you are adding points toward the one to which your are connecting it. That means that the arrow will point to the back of the arrow of one of the two connected diodes. Do the same with the last diode and connect it to the other of the two originally connected diodes. Now connect together the open ends of the last two diodes you connected. That last connection will be the negative (-) end of the bridge rectifier. Connect the AC to the other "corners" of the bridge. It doesn't matter which wire goes where. It's AC, and the polarity of the applied voltage will be alternating. Use the provided link to the Wikipedia article on the diode bridge to see how it is connected and how it works. Note: Work safely at all times and never energize something you are uncertain about.A true bridge rectifier has 4 connections, two are for AC input and two are for DC output.It doesn't matter which way you connect the two AC inputs, so long as they are within the voltage specifications of the bridge. The output will be as labeled on the bridge with + voltage coming out the + connection and - voltage out the - connection.You also need to make certain that the current load does not exceed the capacity of the bridge.On the other hand, if you're trying to build a bridge rectifier from diodes, send me an e-mail address and I'll send a drawing. My e-mail address is on my bio page.

What is the sentence for remotely operated vehicle?
They lost control of the remotely operated vehicle and it was never seen again.
Why can't a conventional pn junction be used for high frequency switching applications?
If the reverse recovery time of the diode is too long for the operating frequency, the diode will never turn off.
Can a pn junction diode be used as an amplifier?
Never. It is impossible to use diodes for amplification.
What is a linkage cable?
Never heard of it, it's either linkage or cable. Carburetered vehicles could be linkage or cable operated. Throttle body would be cable operated or even electronically operated. Older transmissions could be linkage and later models would be cable operated.

What is the meter reading for a forward biased diode is likely to be when using the diode test range of a digital multimeter?
A: Nobody can answer that. It depends on the diode, battery on the meter, scale of the meter. It should never read zero or close to zero ohms and reversing the lead it should just be close to open but it may read some hi k ohms. A meter test is just to find shorted diodes and extremely leaking diode.
