What else can I help you with?
Can dc to ac converter burn up power tools?
They can. Low end inverters often use a square wave output, instead of a sine wave output. This causes harmonic distortion that can sometimes damage equipment. One of the damage mechanisms is the simple rectifier - when the diode conducts and recharges the filter capacitor in a power supply, if the slope of the step change is vertical, as it would be with a square wave, the instantaneous current through the diode and capacitor tries to be infinite, and that can damage the diode or capacitor.
What does the term PIV for a diode refer to?
Peak Inverse Voltage, the maximum reverse bias (inverse) voltage that can be applied to the diode without damaging or destroying it. The work "peak" is used to remind you that when using the diode to rectify AC (or arbitrary waveforms) you must use the peak voltage, not the RMS voltage.
Difference between gunn diode and pin diode?
gunn diode is transfered electron device & PIN diode is semiconductor device
What is a real diode?
whether we know that p-n diode is real diode. But still in case of semeconductor we see then silics is real diode.
The bluk resistance of a diode depends on?
Bulk resistance of diode depends on how it is biased. The bulk resistance of a diode is the approximate resistance of the diode when it is forward biased.
What do you mean by damage of a diode?
A light Emitting Diode.... Light Resistat Diode ...
How can you make a bypass diode?
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
Can switch transient spike damage diode?
A switch transient spike cannot damage a doide.
Why a series resistor is necessary when a diode is forward-biasedexplain?
A series resistor is necessary when a diode is forward-biased to limit the current flowing through the diode and prevent damage to the diode. Without a series resistor, the diode could draw excess current and overheat, potentially causing it to fail. The resistor helps control the current and protect the diode in the circuit.
What is peak inverse voltage with reference to diodes?
The maximum voltage which can apply When diode in reverse bias..if it is exceed that voltage the diode may get damage.
Can dc to ac converter burn up power tools?

One of the damage mechanisms is the simple rectifier - when the diode conducts and recharges the filter capacitor in a power supply, if the slope of the step change is vertical, as it would be with a square wave, the instantaneous current through the diode and capacitor tries to be infinite, and that can damage the diode or capacitor.
How is zener diode different from a conventional diode or ideal diode?
zener diode :zener diode operates under reverse bias voltageideal diode :ideal diode operates under forward bias voltage
Can a diode be used as rectifier diode?
yes, diode can be used as rectifier diode to convert ac to dc
What is impatt diode?
The read type diode are called impatt diode
What is the function of diode what is the function of diode?
A diode is used primarily as a Rectifier
Which is better light emitting diode or laser diode?
Laser diode
Why use blocking diode across the relay coil?
Coils have the strange property that when electricity is released from them, they reverse polarity and spike the remaining current back towards the source. The diode is there to "block" this from hitting the power supply and potentially causing damage.
