Reverse leakage may be measured only after removing the component from the circuit board because shunt resistances abound in almost all circuits. Good silicon rectifiers and diodes should have, for ...

where Np and Ns are the transformer’s primary and secondary windings, respectively. Considering the power level of a high- to low-voltage DC/DC converter and the power losses of a ...

Left panel, superconducting rectifier circuit used to convert AC currents into DC using four superconducting diodes (blue) connected by superconducting interconnects and one smoothing capacitor (C ...

A semiconductor diode is a key component in rectifier circuits, allowing the flow of electric charge in only one direction. A semiconductor rectifier diode is a two-terminal electronic device that ...

The circuit was compared to a popular KBU8B silicon diode rectifier. At an input voltage of 5 V rms at 50 Hz and a constant load of 5 A dc, the KBU8B’s output was 4.45 V dc, average, measured ...

Here, we report on a rectifier based on a pentacene diode that can rectify an incoming a.c. signal at 50 MHz. At 14 MHz, a rectified voltage of 11 V for an a.c. voltage with a peak-to-peak ...

Their nanoscale spin rectifiers can convert the RF signal to a DC voltage using the spin-diode effect. Although the SR-based technology surpassed the Schottky diode sensitivity, the low-power ...
