One of the most common parts and one of the earliest electronic devices is known to be a power diode. Its purpose is to limit the electric current’s ability to flow in one direction while obstructing ...

Researchers have found a way to make a key electronic component on a phenomenally tiny scale -- a single-molecule diode. Recently, at Arizona State University's Biodesign Institute, N.J. Tao and ...

I provided some engineering assistance a couple years ago for a company designing photo-voltaic array (PVA) based power inverters. These are sometimes referred to as micro-inverters since they are ...

Most modern electronic devices consist of several key components: transistors, capacitors, resistors, inductors and diodes. Often, they are supplemented by additional components like crystals and ...

Researchers working collaboratively between the University of Georgia, USA and Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel have developed the world's smallest diode. A diode is an essential component ...

Diodes are tiny components that allow electricity to flow in only one direction. In this video, you'll learn how diodes work, ...

How a Virginia Tech research team constructed its novel thermal diode. Test results of the thermal diode. Electrical engineers are obviously very familiar and comfortable with the basic diode, a ...

The diode is a fundamental component you must understand if you want to grow your electronics prowess. So today, we’re going to take a quick look at what a diode is, then look at 4½ uses for a diode ...

Researchers have developed a new resonant tunneling diode (RTD) with performance beyond the anticipated speed of 5G. David Storm, a research physicist, and Tyler Growden, an electrical engineer, both ...

Optoelectronic components play a key role in circuit isolation, control modules, and communication applications. Therefore, manufacturers like Everlight rarely limit their range to just LEDs… ...
