Electricity doesn’t just flow freely in every direction—it needs control. That control comes from a tiny but powerful ...

This video explains how diodes function as directional components in electronic circuits. Diodes allow current to flow in ...

The basis of a solid-state diode laser is, of course, the diode. Laser diodes can have different emission wavelength—most of them have between 405 nm to 808 nm. The diodes usually have TO3, TO5, TO9, ...

Electromagnetic waves with frequencies between microwave and infrared light, also known as terahertz radiation, are leveraged ...

Alpha and Omega Semiconductor has announced a family of active diodes which can reduce the 1.2V forward drop of 600V bridge rectifiers. “Both products are self-powered from the AC line and do not ...

Rarely a week goes by that some company doesn’t offer to send us their latest and greatest laser. You know the type — couple of aluminum extrusions, Class 4 diode flopping around in the breeze, and no ...

A semiconductor-based laser used to generate analog signals or digital pulses for transmission through optical fibers. Both laser diodes and LEDs (light-emitting diodes) are used for this purpose, but ...

With Linear Technology’s LT4320 ideal-diode bridge controller, power supply designers can replace each of the four diodes in a conventional full-wave bridge rectifier with a low-loss N-channel MOSFET.

Addressing key design and manufacturing concerns of solar panel makers producing next-generation PV modules, Diodes Inc has housed its latest 12A-rated SBR12U45LH SBR (Super Barrier Rectifier) in a ...
