the diode is forward bias

ANSWER: A bypass diode is used to bypass circuitry as soon as the diode is forward bias by 0.6 volts The use it to bypass to prevent damage to the circuitry

What is the function of Bypass diode in the test terminals of a pressure transmitter?

The function of the bypass diode is to allow the loop current to be measured without disconnecting the current loop connections. It therefore allows for a quick measurement of the loop current without disturbing any control or monitoring equipment that is connected to it. This is achieved by simply connecting an ammeter across the diode. If the voltage drop across the ammeter is less than that of the diode (about 0.6V) then all of the loop current will flow through the ammeter rather than the diode. The ammeter is therefore able to measure the loop current.

Can you put diode in computer to bypass vat system?

This is what saved my car and my money (that I didn't have!). Here is a write-up on how to do it all yourself. It will bypass the VATS system entirely, you will not hear about it anymore and it will not own your car anymore! http://newrockies.ca/vatsbypass


What to do for obtaining 40 percent duty cycle with 555timer is it possible?

Place a diode in the circuit to bypass R2 during the charging cycle.. this will allow you to achieve duty cycles of < 50%


Germanium diode works at 0.3v?

To forward bias a germanium diode you need to reach between 0.2 and 0.3 V between anode (+) and cathode (-). Once this voltage is reached, the diode will conduct. Make sure you have a resistor to limit the forward current to a safe (for the diode, that is) value.
