What is the main characteristic of a diode?
It conducts in only one direction.
What is difference between a diode and a photo diode?
diodediode conducts by applying certain voltagephoto diodephoto diode conducts when it is exposed to sun light
Is a diode an insulator?
No. A diode conducts in one direction but not in the other.
In which configuration does a diode conduct?
Forward biased is the configuratiuon that a diode conducts.
What is a device that only allows electricity to flow in one direction?
diode
What is a diode is like a?
A: a semiconductor conducts one way only
What is the main characteristic of a diode?
It conducts in only one direction.
What is a diode in reference to electronics?
a device that conducts in only one direction
A two terminal device that conducts in only one direction?
Diode
What is difference between a diode and a photo diode?
diodediode conducts by applying certain voltagephoto diodephoto diode conducts when it is exposed to sun light
Does a silicon diode conduct in reverse bias?
If it's a silicon zener diode, it conducts in the reverse direction after the rated voltage is reached. Otherwise, it only conducts in the forward bias direction.
Is a diode an insulator?
No. A diode conducts in one direction but not in the other.
What electronic component conducts electric current in only one direction?
diode it conducts when it is forward bised in reverse bias there is breakdown
Will a zener diode work the same as a germanium diode?
No. An ordinary diode, be it silicon or germanium, conducts in one direction only, whereas a zener diode conducts in both directions, but at different voltages. An ordinary diode is used to rectify, using its forward bias characteristics, while a zener diode is used to regulate, using its reverse bias characteristics.
In which configuration does a diode conduct?
Forward biased is the configuratiuon that a diode conducts.
What happen of a a diode When forward-biased?
when a diode is forward biased it conducts current
Can diode work as switch?
yes diode can be used as a switch as it conducts current in only one direction.it is a open switch when it reverse biased.and as aclosed switch when it is forward biased.but we consider diode as ideal .
