Why diode don't allow the current coming in opposite direction?
Diode is known as a rectifier because it only allows the current to flow in one direction. Diode is only effective when the input is AC.
Why is recombinatio important in a diode?
Recombination in a diode is crucial because it facilitates the movement of charge carriers, enabling the diode to function effectively as a rectifier. In a p-n junction diode, when electrons from the n-type region recombine with holes in the p-type region, it creates a depletion region that allows current to flow in one direction while blocking it in the opposite direction. This process helps establish the diode's characteristic I-V curve, which is essential for controlling electrical current in circuits. Without recombination, the diode would not be able to regulate current flow properly.
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.
When do you kmow that the diode is working?
A diode is working when it allows current to flow in one direction (forward bias) while blocking it in the opposite direction (reverse bias). You can test its functionality using a multimeter set to the diode testing mode; a good diode will show a voltage drop (typically around 0.6 to 0.7 volts for silicon diodes) in one direction and display no conduction in the reverse direction. If it conducts in both directions or shows no conduction at all, it may be faulty.
What happens when the temperature of a forward biased diode is increased?
What happens depends on the temperature coefficient of the diode. If that diode has a positive temperature coefficient, it resistance increases with increased temperature. A diode with a negative temperature coefficient does the opposite.
Why diode don't allow the current coming in opposite direction?
Diode is known as a rectifier because it only allows the current to flow in one direction. Diode is only effective when the input is AC.
What is the purpose is of a diode?
The purpose of a diode is to allow electric current to pass in one direction while blocking electric current in the opposite direction. It is for this reason that diode is usually referred as the check valve.
What happens if you reverse a diode in a half-wave rectifier?
you will get the opposite polarity DC as before
What does a Photo diode do?
It converts light into an electrical signal. Opposite of what an LED does. David Gallardo ATX
Why is a diode called unidirectional?
A diode is unidirectional because of the diode only conduct in forwardbias .As you know the diode have two terminal cathode and anode . and when the positive terminal of battery connected to the p-side and other terminal connected to the other terminal of diode then diode is called forward biased . and when it connection is just opposite then it become in reverse biased . so we can finally say that the diode is unidirectional
What is a pcm diode on a 2001 ford explorer sport trac?
Powertrain Control Module diode ( from what I read , a diode is a one direction device which permits current to flow easily in one direction , but offers an extremely high resistance to a current trying to flow in the opposite direction )
What is the purpose of a diode in a cordless drill or power screw driver?
The purpose of a diode in a cordless drill or power screw driver is to allow electricity to flow in one direction only and blocks the flow in the opposite direction.
Why is recombinatio important in a diode?

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
How Tod find the zener diode voltage and its circuit diagram?
The circuit symbol is like a diode, but with short lines coming out of each side of the cathode line, in opposite directions. To find breakdown voltage, find the part code and look it up.
Can a diode be used as rectifier diode?
yes, diode can be used as rectifier diode to convert ac to dc
