How do you identify the polarity of a diode when the tester is on diode scale?
Connect the positive lead of the tester to the anode of the diode and the negative lead to the cathode. If the tester displays a voltage drop or a forward bias reading, the diode is forward biased and the anode is positive. If the tester displays an OL or reverse bias reading, the diode is reverse biased and the anode is negative.
Which mode is use in digital multimeter for testing of diode?
A: For a digital meter to test a diode it must have a scale for resistance for it to work, If not a 1.25 v cell with series limiting resistor will work. If you measure across the diode the reading should be .7 volts reverse the cell polarity then the diode voltage should be 1.25 v .7v is forward voltage 1.25 is reverse voltage.
What is the typical value of the barrier potential for a silicon diode?
Forward biase the given diode by using a Variable resistor in the circuit. By adjusting the value of variable resistor you will adjust the voltage being applied to junction diode. First adjust the resistance such that no(negligble) current flows through the circuit. Now start decreasing the value of resistance. Note the voltage across resistor(Vr) when current just starts flowing through the circuit. Then Potential barrier of diode will be: Vb=V-Vr Vb:Barrier Potential V:Battery Voltage Vr:Voltage Drop across resistance when current just starts flowing through the circuit.
What is the negative leg of an LED called?
The side of any diode that must be negative in order for the diode to conduct is the "cathode".

What is an electronic vacuum valve with three electrodes?
Triode
What is a crystal triode?
A crystal triode is the old term for transistor. Crystal diodes were well established by the time transistors were invented, so using vacuum tube terminology, the logical name for a diode whose current could be controlled by a third element was "crystal triode".
What is diode volve?
I think you mean 'diode valve'! A 'valve' is the British term for what Americans call 'tubes' or, more accurately, 'vacuum tubes'. So, a 'diode valve' is a thermionic valve generally used as a rectifier, much in the same way that a semiconducting diode is used, these days.
Why a triode cannot be used as a rectifier?
Actually it can be used as a diode, but rarely is. Just connect the grid and plate together and it has been reduced to a diode. There are also certain circuits that use the cathode and grid as a diode, while also obtaining an amplified output on the plate.
What do you mean by amplification factor of a triode valve?
"Triode valve" does not make sense. Please restate the question.Umm... yes, it *does* make sense.Triode "valve" is non-U.S. English for Triode tube.OK.Amplification factor is the amount of anode voltage change to give a chosen amount of anode current change, compared to the amount of grid voltage change for the same anode current change.The symbol is u (it's actually the Greek character for m), and it's called "mu".That is, using "d" for "amount of change":dVa/dVg for equal dIa.Typical values are as low as 2 (6AS7/6080 regulator valve) to 12 (6C4/12AU7 medium-mu triode) to around 100 (6AV6 high-mu triode).Some special microwave triode have mu values in the 300s.

What does BY stand for in BY 127 diode?
BIPOLAR A2 It does not stand for anything. It is a maker's designation mark, a throwback from the thermionic tube (valve) days. The letters in front of the number used to indicate the heater voltage and the type of internals (triode, pentode etc) B used to indicate that it was a semiconductor, not a tube. There are different designations around the world, for the same equivalent device, American, European and Japanese.

What is the direction of current flow in a diode valve?
Inside the diode valve the conventional curret flow is from anode to cathode. The electron flow is from cathode to anode.
What is the History of the basic electronics?
In1883 THOMAS EDISON discover the electron and it,s the begning of electronics after that FLEMING discover the diode and then DE FOREST discover the triode which is called transistor
Who is the inventor of vacuum tubes?
Sir John Ambrose Fleming patented the thermionic diode in 1904. Then Lee DeForest put a control grid into it to create the triode in 1906.
