| Standard zener diodes are often too slow for application in signal-limiting circuits. If a fast zener is not available, the circuit in th...

| It may happen that a video recording is a little too dark so that certain nuances disappear and the picture is no longer clear. The expan...

| The p-i-n (or PIN) diode is a semiconductor diode that contains a region of almost intrinsic (i-type) semiconductor between the p-typ...

| The advantage of a touch witch over a traditional, mechanical, witch is that its operation is not degraded by wear and tear.

| The monitor is a handy aid in cam and is particularlv suitable for radio amateurs who power their equipment from a car battery.

| In certain applications it may be desirable, in order to limit unnecessary power losses, to have the use of a diode with a forward voltag...

| For measurements on alternating voltage, an active rectifier is normally needed to convert that voltage into a direct voltage which is a...

| It often happens that someone wants to watch television without the sound disturbing other people in the room. To avoid having a long cab...

| The aim of the design of this 'zener diode' is to obtain a fast voltage regulator that can provide high currents. The circuit is based on...

| At high currents, many silicon diodes have a forward voltage of 1V or more. There are types whose drop at currents of up to 2-3 A is limi...
