What is diode rectifier?
By definiton, a diode lets electrical current flow only in one direction. A RECTIFIER DIODE is basically the same thing. It is used mainly for power supply operation and can handle higher current flow than a regular diode. Diodes are rated from milliamps to as high as 100 amps per diode depending upon the diode style and amperage rating. A recitifier diode is the same as a "Power diode". Diodes are mainly used to change AC (alternating current) into DC (directo current) which is used by batteries and etc.
Can a diode work in ac?
A diode is a "one-way valve" that allows electrical current to flow in only one direction. A diode placed in series between an AC voltage source and a resistive load will allow current to flow through the load in one direction and block the current when the polarity of the AC voltage changes.
What is a large slower acting diode?
it is a rectify diode
What is schotty diode?
Its schotlky diode. schotlky diode is metal semi conducter junction. It has fast switchng speed. The cutting voltage of schotlky diode is about 0.2 volts.
What is the difference between a 1N4007 diode and a 1N4007S diode what does the s do?
The difference in the 1N4007 diode and the 1N4007S diode is the voltage. The 1N4007S has a higher voltage but the meaning of the S is not listed.
What is frequency response of a diode?
The frequency response is nothing but how fast the diode is responding for the given amount of voltage from source. The resulting waveform will be in the frequency domain representation system.
What type of diode produces light when properly biased?
That would be an LED or Light Emitting Diode an LED is a light
Who discovered the electrical property of zener diode?
charles zener
Which electrical voltage value does a dmm output when in diode test mode?
When testing a diode with dmm in diode test mode 0.6v is delivered through the device to indicate continuity
What is the characteristic of a diode when electrical current passes through it?
A "diode" is any of several devices; the only thing they have in common is that they have two electrical connections - hence the name. These devices have different functions. The simplest semiconductor diode, and one of the most common, is probably the rectifier diode. It lets current pass in one direction, but not in the other direction.
What is verector diode in electronics?
I think you you are asking about varactor diode. varactor means variable capacitor. varactor diode is a p-n junction diode which provide a capacitance across it subjected to applied forward and reverse bias. means it provide variable capacitance which depends on the applied reverse voltage(mostly varactor diode works on reverse voltage).They are also known as varicap
What is the difference between a diode and an LED?
A diode is a semiconductor device that allows current to flow in one direction only, while an LED (Light Emitting Diode) is a type of diode that emits light when current passes through it. In simpler terms, a diode controls the flow of electricity, while an LED produces light.
Is a zener diode a current limiter?
No. A zener diode is a voltage limiter. Circuit design might create a current limiting response, but the basic control is voltage, not current.
What kind of electricity is produced by a car?
the alternator produces a 3 phase AC electrical current that is "converted" into a single phase DC electrical current. This is done courtesy of the diode trio located in the regulator assembly of the alternator. typical output of an alternator is about 14 v DC and about .1 V AC.
When does the diode not allowed to flow the current?
A diode is a one-way gate for electrical current to flow through. You must have the right size diode for the amount of current that will be used in your circuit. The stripe on the diode is your output end. That is, the current must enter your diode at the non-stripe end and leave at the end with the stripe. This coincides with the diode symbol used on your schematic. If your diode is in backwards, the circuit will not work as the gate in the diode will block the current just the way it should.
What is an Esaki diode?
A diode is a semiconductor electrical component that allows an electric current in only one direction. A tunnel diode, or Esaki diode, is a special type of diode that can operate very quickly using quantum tunneling, allowing it to work even with microwave frequencies (current switching direction billions of times per second).
What does a Photo diode do?
It converts light into an electrical signal. Opposite of what an LED does. David Gallardo ATX
