Best Answer

No - a fuse is designed as a safety device - to operate within a specific range. It performs a completely different function to a diode.

Can you take a 2000mW laser diode and turn it into a 50mW laser diode if so how do you do it?

yes, just look it up on youtube, there will be instructional videos! good luck!


What is the difference between diode and resistors?

the resistance of a diode is .4 ohms is made of tantalum or .7 ohms if made of silicon. ANSWER: THE RESISTANCE OF A DIODE IS SIMPLY V/I the impedance however is defines by Boltzmann constant


How zener diode differ from normal p-n junction diode?

Zener diodes differ from normal p-n junction diodes in that they have a reduced reverse breakdown voltage and, in fact, we normally operate zener diodes in reverse bias to take advantage of the relatively stable voltage regulation it provides.


Is a diode used as capacitor?

Both a capacitor and battery "store charge". However, in a battery there is a chemical reaction that continues to generate charge. You apply a charge across the "plates" of a capacitor and it will decay over time from leakage or through a discharge resistance to ground in the circuit. You need really large capacitors to store meaningful amounts of charge, to take the place of a battery for example.


Definition of a conducting forward biased silicon diode?

Forward biasing of diode means applying positive potential to anode and negative potential to cathode in this case these points are happen in silicon diode- 1> Depletion Width Reduces 2>Voltage across junction is fixed at 0.7 volt 3> diode behave like short circuit (low resistance up to 400 ohm.) 4> it rectify the applied A.C signal. ANSWER: It does not have fix .7 volts it has however an exponential VI curve which engineering take for practical as being .6 to.8 volts being forward conducting the voltage chosen depends on the actual current flowing a rectifier may have .8 volts while a signal diode may have .5 volts depending on the current flow. The resistance is just VI drop the impedance is 26mv/i

Disadvantage of using diode as shunt element in clipper circuit?

In shunt clippers, when the diode is in off condition, transmission of input signal must take place to output. But in the case of high frequency input signals, diode capacitance affects the operation of circuit adversely and the signal gets attenuated (which means that, it passes through diode capacitance to ground).


What is fuse number 30 for in a 1998 Ford F150?

Is the number 30 on the fuse? This refers to the amperage that the fuse can take. If your looking for what a particular fuse connects to, usually you can find a key on the door of the fuse access panel. Otherwise, try contacting the dealer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The owners manual for the 1998 F150 shows fuse # 30 as a 30 amp fuse for the Ignition Coil , PCM Power Diode , Radio Noise Capaciter

How do you take out the 80 amp main fuse under the hood of an 89 Toyota pickup 2wd?

You must take the whole fuse box out. Then you will have access to the two bolts that hold it in place. The bolts are about 1 1/2" down from the top of the plastic fuse cover.


What are locum physicians?

Locum physicians are simply doctors that temporarily take the place of normal doctors. They are normally used in situations where new doctors are needed quickly.

How does rectification take place?

Type your answer her rectification takes place due to diode in rectifiers in a hwr only one diode presents it conducts during positive half and give dc out put. in fwr four (or) two diodes will presents based on type but the give both half cycles output ANSWER: A diode will pass an AC voltage trough only one way and refuse to pass the the other half of the AC signal. With just one diode the output will be the AC voltage minus the .7 v drop by the diode this output is called pulsating DC since it has no other component from the AC components in its output. It does no matter which side is rectified the + or the - the result will be either + or - pulsating DC.


How do you take a fuse out?

Do you need to undo the screws at tha base of the alternator fuse to take it out of the relay box of a 97 Hyundai Accent?

hi, yes you will have to take out both of the two screws that hold the fuse in place. then put in the new fuse(should be a 100 amp fuse) and put in both screws. the fuse it self is pretty cheap to replace. i live in WI and it cost about $6 when i put a new alternator fuse in my '96 accent. hopefully this was helpful for you.

What types of emergency power supplies are available for cell phones?

There are Battery back ups that a person can plug a cellphone into for emergency's. This will take the place of charging it through a electrical outlet temporarily.


Why diode can't use as amplifier?

A2. For amplification to take place, one needs three terminals; an input, an output, and a control signal.This indicates the original " valve" naming; after a mechanical valve, where a small effort on a (hydraulic) valve may be used to control a larger effort of the controlled fluid.A1. If u meant why diode can't be used as an amplifier diode is used as a rectifier..it converts ac current to dc and there is an inbuilt voltage drop... so it can't be used as an amplifier
