A diode is used as a rectifier, clipper and to get square wave form. The combination of diode (bridge) is used for full wave rectification. It also used as a voltage controlar. Different types of diodes have different uses in different appliences.

Can a diode be used as rectifier diode?
yes, diode can be used as rectifier diode to convert ac to dc
What is the function of diode what is the function of diode?
A diode is used primarily as a Rectifier
Can diode be used as rectifier?
yes ofcourse diode can be used as rectifier but it's an uncontrolled rectification.
What type of diode is used as a variable capacitor?
varactor diode is a correct answer
Is it pn junction diode used as voltage regulator?
zener diode
What type of diode is a HVR-1X4 diode?
It's a high voltage diode, typically used in microwave ovens.
What is the difference between p n junction and zener diode?
The difference between the pn-junction diode and the zener diode is that the pn-junction diode is used for rectification while the zener diode is used for rectification and stabilization. Also, the zener diode can function in the breakdown region while the pn-juntion diode can not function in that regime.
Does a zener diode acts as a switch?
A zener diode cannot be used as switch.
What is use of the diode?
The use of the pn diode is for rectification. It can also be used as a switch.
What is the different between photo-diode and LED?
A Photo-diode is used to receive light. whereas the L.E.D. is a Light Emitting Diode.
What is the function of zener?
zener diode is a revers bias diode which used for voltage regulation.
What type of diode is often used in television remote-control devices?
infrared diode
