Can you parallel schottky diodes?

according to Texas Instruments it is a good practice to use multiple schottky diodes in parallel.


How does a foxhole radio work?

If i remember correctly it uses the graphite in a pencil as a crystal similar to that of other crystal radios.


What is an OLED TV?

Oled TVs use Organic light-emitting diodes. They are supposed to be crystal clear.


What are diodes Give an example of what a diode does.?

diodes are devices that will conduct electricity in one direction but not the other.diodes are used to rectify AC to make DC in powersupplies.diodes are used to demodulate AM radio signals.diodes are used in some simple AND & OR logic gates.diodes are used in limiter and clamping circuits to set the threshold voltage.etc.some types of diodes are:5Y3, 5U4, Type 80 dual vacuum tube fullwave rectifier power diodes.1B3GT & 5C12P vacuum tube high voltage rectifier power diodes.1N4001, 1N4002, 1N4003, 1N4004, 1N4005, 1N4006, 1N4007 silicon rectifier power diodes.1N914 & 1N4148 silicon small signal high speed gold doped switching diodes.1N34A & 1N60 germanium detector point contact diodes for crystal radios.1N5711 silicon small signal schottky barrier diode.Selenium & copper oxide power rectifier diodes.Galena "cat's whisker" detector diode for crystal radios.etc.there are several special types of semiconductor diodes that are used because of other features besides unidirectional conduction. some are:LED emits light.LASER diode is a tiny LASER.tunnel diode has a negative resistance operating range, allowing use as amplifier.varactor diode is an electrically variable capacitor.zener diode used for voltage regulation and references.etc.


I've heard about LED and plasma TVs, but not this one. How does it differ?

Oled TVs use Organic light-emitting diodes. They are supposed to be crystal clear.


What difference between LCD and led?

LCD is Liquid Crystal Display, consisting of a thin liquid-crystal gel between two glass panels. LED 'Slight Emitting Diodes--also use liquid crystal gel for the screen, but the main difference lies in how the display is lit.

Why did roosevelt use radios to communicate with citizens?

Most people had radios.


Which type of diode used in bridge rectifier?

You can use most diodes for that purpose, and particularly silicon diodes. However, you should not use zener diodes and similar for rectification purposes. Otherwise, you will likely not get the intended result. If the voltage exceeds the avalanche voltage, then the zener diode will no longer rectify, but conduct the other way as well.


What frequencies do FRS radios use?

The frequencies that FRS radios use is channels 8 to 14 and 462 to 467. FRS radios are Family Radio Service radios and can be bought from Radio Shack and Amazon.


Do crystal radio sets still work now that everything has gone digital?

Yes because only television signals from some stations have gone digital. Crystal radios will pick up stations broadcasting on the A.M. broadcast band (540k to 1600K). These signals are amplitude modulated and crystal radios pick these up really well. You could also use them for Shortwave and pick up some stations. Am, FM and shortwave are still not digital.
