The video also covers various diode types such as standard, Zener, Schottky, and LED diodes, explaining their unique features and applications.Whether you’re a student, electronics hobbyist, or ...

A conventional low-voltage silicon diode has a forward voltage drop of about 0.7V and a relatively low maximum reverse voltage, for example with the 1N4001 rectifier it’s 50V.

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: t… ...
