These electronically tunable pulse generators generate an initial step function using a step recovery diode, which is then converted into pulses of various durations by alternately switching on one of ...

Abstract: This paper attempts to fulfill the need for a quantitative analysis of the microwave equivalent steady state circuit parameters of the reverse biased PIN diode as a function of the process ...

This is an ultra-sensitive fire sensor that activates an alarm when it detects fire. In this circuit, a sensitive PIN diode is used as a fire sensor for longer-range fire detection. It detects visible ...
