Integrated Driver Circuit Figure 2 shows a solution with a dedicated APC laser driver IC 4 for CW operation up to 300 mA from a 2.4 to 15-V supply voltage. It requires only four additional passive ...

In this rf switch, the PIN diodes are used to shut on of off several antennas. The current source is a 12 volt circuit composed of a transformer, bridge rectifier and a regulator IC. In order to know ...

When the integrated circuit was invented in 1958, it eclipsed the four-layer diode's capabilities and any market for the diode quickly dried up. Four-layered semiconductors are, however, used today.

Littelfuse Inc. (Chicago, IL) has introduced the SP1012 Series TVS Diode Array (SPA® Diodes), a miniature, five-channel 6.5 pF, 15 kV bidirectional TVS array for general-purpose ...

AND gate implemented as diode-resistor logic. (Credit: Anthony Francis-Jones) The fun part about logic gates is that there are so many ways to make them, with each approach having its own ...

ProTek Devices introduced a new ultra-low capacitance steering diode / transient voltage suppressor array (TVS array) designed to deliver circuit protection in Gigabit Ethernet applications ...

Innovations such as quantum thermal diodes, capable of directing heat flow in a specific direction, and quantum thermal transistors, which amplify heat flows similarly to how electronic ...

A superconducting diode bridge composed of four superconducting diodes efficiently converts AC to DC at cryogenic temperatures, achieving rectification efficiencies up to 42% ± 5%.
