Which diode used for signal amplification zener or schottky or tunnel or none?
The diode that has a negative resistance region in its voltage-current curve.
Why Schottky diodes are used in wave shaping circuits?
Schottky diodes are often used for RF radio frequency applications as a mixer or detector diode. Another common application for the Schottky diode is in power applications as a rectifier.
When diode is used as an amplifier it is operated in what?
Diodes are not amplifiers.
When does the diode not allowed to flow the current?
A diode is a one-way gate for electrical current to flow through. You must have the right size diode for the amount of current that will be used in your circuit. The stripe on the diode is your output end. That is, the current must enter your diode at the non-stripe end and leave at the end with the stripe. This coincides with the diode symbol used on your schematic. If your diode is in backwards, the circuit will not work as the gate in the diode will block the current just the way it should.
Why mostly a transister is used as amplifier than diode?
A diode is not an amplifier. It is a rectifier with asymmetrical voltage breakdown voltages. Usually the forward voltage is around 0.6V to 0.7V (silicon), and the reverse voltage is smaller than breakdown voltage, which is much higher. A transistor can be used as an amplifier, by taking into account the fact that the voltage breakdown curves vary, usually collector-emitter, as a function of some other current, usually base-emitter, but this depends on the class of the amplifier and whether or not the transistor is driven into saturation.

Is zener diode a voltage amplifier or currentlimitig circuit or osilator circuit?
The zener diode is neither a voltage amplifier nor a current limiting device but can be used in oscillator circuits to supply a constant output voltage.

Diodes are not amplifiers.
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
What type of diode is used to convert alternating current into direct current?
The type of diode used to convert alternating current in to direct current is the power diode.
Different between schottky diode and zener diode?
pn junction diode conducts current in one directions where as the zener diode conducts in both the directions. large current flow damage the PN junction diode but zener diode conducts eventhough there is a large current........

What is the use of superdiode?
superdiode consist of diode and amplifier circuit.it is used for the rectification of small signals
Can a pn junction diode be used as an amplifier?
Never. It is impossible to use diodes for amplification.
What is the diode and Why it is used in electronic circuits?
A diode is basically a electronic non return valve it let current flow in one direction only and can not be used for amplification it only consist of a cathode and anode, where the transistor can be used in many applications, for instance as an amplifier, electronic switch, oscillator etc. it consist of three connections eg. Collector, Emitter and a Base normally the current is collected at the Collector and emitted at the Emitter and the Base is used to control the current flow with the Base at 0 volt no or very little current will flow between C and E it will only switch on with the B at about 2.7volt and the higher the B voltage the more current will flow thru the transistor
