a device that conducts in only one direction
zener
electronics
They are frequently used to provide a voltage reference in voltage regulators.
Diode
Yes, I am using one in my electronics class currently
It is a barrier-injection transit-time, a high frequency - semi - structural element of micro-electronics, as the diode is one of the electronic components.
It actually means Light Emitting Diode. I hoped i helped :)
Gunn Diodes are used in high frequency electronics. The advantages are increased efficiency and improved temperature stability while a disadvantage is the Gunn Diode can get burned out.
LED stand for Light Emitting Diode.
Diode is a Two terminal device which allows flow of curent in forward direction that means it converts DC to AC
The alternator diode rectifier converts the AC current being produced by the alternator to DC from which most of the electronics installed and battery use.
Different applications of diode include:Rectification of voltageswitching circuitsclamping applicationsvoltage reference (zener Diode)phase lock loop/FFLinfrared applicationssignal amplifierssensorshigh frequency micro-wave oscillators.
