no. a fuse protects a circuit from overload, while a diode is a component of a circuit.
There are several types of diodes; the only thing they have in common is that they have two electrodes - hence the name.
You do not want to replace diodes with zener diodes. They are not the same type of device, and the design objective is not the same.
Check the fuses, same thing happened to me. i had a blown fuse.
Today, all diodes are semiconductor diodes. However, the first diodes were piles of washers of different metals that together made a diode, and specially constructed vacuum tubes. There may still be markets for other types of diodes in very high voltage circuits, but you or i are unlikely to come in contact with them.
It is not really necessary for 2 diodes of full wave rectifier to be identical. However, it must be understood that the two diodes will have the same forward current, and the same reverse voltage, applied to them, so their ratings should be comparable.
The cruise is ran by the same fuses that power the computerThe cruise is ran by the same fuses that power the computer
Check ALL the fuses same thing happend to me and it took a while for me to figure it out
The Power Distribution Box ( which is " live " ) is located in the engine compartment on the drivers side near the firewall in a 1995 Ford Explorer It has maxi fuses , small size fuses , relays , diodes
Special diode does special function. Diodes are originally used to rectify ac current into dc current . Other versions of diodes are constructed in a similar way using the same principles but their function is not rectification such as light emmision diode
The same reason fuses are put everywhere, to electrii
1. general purpose diodes 2. fast recovery diodes 3. schottky diodes
Semiconductor fuses are used to prevent large semiconductor devices (IGBTs, GTOs, diodes etc) from rapturing and causing secondary damages to the rest of the system and people in the event of a short circuit. They are usually not intended to prevent the semiconductor device from failing.
