A diode is a semiconductor device that exhibits a nonlinear current-voltage relationship. In simpler terms, it allows current to flow more easily in one direction (forward bias) than the other ...

A diode is a tiny component that controls the flow of electricity by allowing current to pass in only one direction. This ...

We might tend to take the word “diode” for granted if we’re thinking of a “diode” as just a two-lead or two-terminal device that gets used in this or that place for this or that purpose. It can become ...

The history of the diode is a fun one as it’s rife with accidental discoveries, sometimes having to wait decades for a use for what was found. Two examples of that are our first two topics: thermionic ...

A diode is a tiny component with a powerful job—controlling the direction of electrical current. This video explains how ...
