Do diodes other than LED's emmit light?
Yes ,laser diodes actually emmit light . All other diodes serve to block voltage ,or zenner diode to regulate.
Is the diode and semiconductor diodes are the same?
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.
Basic construction of zener diode?
A zener diode has a heavily doped p-n junction allowing electrons to tunnel from the valence band of the p-type material to the conduction band of the n-type material, such that the reverse voltage is "clamped" to a known value, called the zener voltage.
How will you differentiate the diodes whether it is zener or an avalanche when you are given two diodes of rating 6.2V and 24V?
Silicon "zener diodes" with a zener voltage rating of 5.6V or higher operate mainly by avalanche breakdown, so both the 6.2V and 24V "zener diodes" are avalanche breakdown type (not zener breakdown type).
Why zener diode used as voltage regulator?
It has a very sharp reverse breakdown voltage curve and is not damaged by the reverse current, as some normal diodes might be.
What must be the rms voltage rating of the transformer secondary for the voltage doubler that produces an output of 500 v?
The transformer should provide 144-0-144 v to have a no-load voltage of 500 v dc in a voltage-doubler using two diodes.
What is the voltage doubler using charge pump?
What is the math in a voltage doubler without a transformer? how doesa voltage doubler without a transformer?
How do you get a higher voltage?
Do a web search for "voltage doubler" or "voltage multiplier" and you will find many solutions. For AC, using appropriate diodes and resistors in the proper configuration with a transformer will do the trick. There are "step up" transformers, which have a different number of windings on the primary and secondary coils. For DC circuits, you can obtain low-cost integrated circuits to effectively increase the input voltage. Look up "dc voltage doubler".
How voltage doubler works?
The voltage doubler works by charging alternate capacitors on alternate half-cycles. Since the capacitors are in series, the voltage doubles.
What expensive component can a voltage multiplier or doubler replace?
a transformer
Which is a voltage tripler electronic device?
A voltage tripler (or doubler, quadrupler, etc.) is a network of capacitors and diodes arranged in series/parallel so that, when they filter an AC waveform, such as the output of a flyback transformer, they produce DC that is a multiple of the peak value. They are most often used to generate the high voltage needed for the anode of a CRT.
What is the Ripple frequency of full wave voltage doubler?
It's double the frequency of the power source.
What do Zener diodes do and how do they regulate voltage in electronic circuits?
Zener diodes are special types of diodes that can maintain a constant voltage across their terminals when they are reverse-biased. This property allows them to regulate voltage in electronic circuits by conducting current in the reverse direction when the voltage exceeds a certain threshold, effectively stabilizing the voltage across the circuit.
How does the full wave doubler works?
full wave doubler works like a doubler but difference is in doubler you will get only double of your input. in full wave doubler you will get a doubler of your doubler...

What is the difference of silicon diode and germanium diode?
A silicon diode has a voltage drop of approximately 0.7V, while a germanium diode has a voltage drop of approximately 0.3V. Though germanium diodes are better in the area of forward voltage drop, silicon diodes are cheaper to produce and have higher breakdown voltages and current capabilities.
What is the difference between series and parallel diodes?
Connecting diodes in series:Connecting diodes in series will increase the forward voltage of the resultant diode.Connecting diodes in series will cause an open circuit until peak inverse voltage (smallest diode) is applied on total resultant.Connecting diodes in parallel:Connecting diodes in parallel will increase the current carrying capacity of the diode.Connecting diodes in parallel will not get you a resultant diode conduction in both sides.
