We have all had difficulty testing diodes in-circuit. Most DMM’s have a diode Vf function that measures forward drop, but what is the normal voltage drop ... Reverse leakage may be measured only after ...

Tiny light-emitting diodes with optical microsystems that can produce all the colors of the rainbow, a new method for producing printed circuit boards – Fraunhofer researchers are showing ...

By combining 49 of them he’s put together a soda bicarb diode steering circuit for a 7-segment display capable of showing the digits 0 to 9.

Tired of loud TV ads? In 2012, Peter de Bruijn built the Mini-Mute — a clever circuit that let him mute his TV with a simple ...

Two of these were diode types. More examples of Williams VFC designs incorporating diode pumps are detailed in his fascinating (and entertaining!) narrative of his creative design process: “The Zoo ...

While circuit boards are mostly invisible to end users, they are foundational to the world they inhabit, powering smartphones, […] TechCrunch Desktop Logo TechCrunch Mobile Logo Latest ...

The SP1020 and SP1021 Series' 01005 flip chip package (0.181mm x 0.230mm x 0.440mm) occupies the industry's smallest footprint, which helps to save printed circuit board space and reduces cost.

For powering an organic circuit, the rectified d.c. signal should be at least around 10 V (refs 1 16) and the voltage drop over the diode should be as small as possible.

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. released a new bidirectional and symmetrical (BiAs) single-line ESD protection diode for portable electronics that provides a reverse avalanche breakdown voltage above ...
