They only allow current to flow in one direction.
An ordinary diode, no. It has nowhere to get energy from.But a solar cell is a type of diode that converts light to electricity. So it is a diode that can power a circuit. So yes, there is one type of diode that can power a circuit.
The diode load line helps determine the operating point of a diode circuit by showing the possible combinations of voltage and current that the diode can have. This analysis is important for understanding how the diode will behave in the circuit and ensuring it operates within its specified parameters.
The purpose of the diode is to prevent electricity to flow in the wrong direction in a circuit. The purpose of the diode is to prevent electricity to flow in the wrong direction in a circuit.
No, you must use one of three options depending upon your circuit and what you want to accomplish: 1. Use a transformer (ie; 24 volts into 12 volts). 2. Use a voltage regulator circuit. 3. Use a ZENER diode that is rated for the maximum voltage you desire in your circuit. Example: A 12 volt circuit with a 5 volt zener diode (the diode will only let a maximum 5 volts get through and will disipate the remaining voltage to ground. (requires proper design and resistor selection). ANSWER: YES ABSOLUTELY if there is a full wave rectifier removing one diode will reduce the voltage and reduce power too.

For answering this question we have to consider the constant voltage drop model of the diode which says that if voltage across diode is less then its cut in voltage than assume diode to be open circuit and if it is greater then assume diode to be short circuit.Till the input voltage is less than the cut in voltage, diode is open circuit(thus no current through the circuit). Thus entire input voltage appears across the diode as output.When input voltage is greater than or equal to cut in voltage, then short circuit the diode. Thus, there will be no voltage drop across the diode as output.Thus cut in voltage decides when to consider the diode open circuit and when short circuit. It decides when the diode will have output when it will not.
No. The purpose of the zener diode is to clip (turn on) at a certain voltage. A capacitor will not exhibit this behavior.
use a vomm set to infinite resistance if you have reistance one way and not the other way. diode is good (must be isolated from circuit) if no resistance both directions diode D.O.A.
A UJT is a special type of diode with a long resistive base having 2 contacts and acting as a voltage divider. The diode junction is created at a point on this base selected to set the trigger voltage of the UJT at which it will conduct. Therefore the equivalent circuit has a diode because the actual circuit has a diode.
The max amount of voltage the diode can block from going into the circuit backwards.
a way of diode modelling in which diode just work as an energy source in the circuit
K = 1 [π − α + 1 sin(2α )] is the formula of calculating the SCR firing circuit diagram with diode.
