However, because it is a single-supply design, the op-amp is powered between 0V and a positive voltage (5V in this case), so the diode presents a problem if the clamp is required to be below 0.7V. Set ...

Posted: Jul 29, 2015: Meet the high-performance single-molecule diode (Nanowerk News) A team of researchers from Berkeley Lab and Columbia University has passed a major milestone in molecular ...

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 ...

Backstory: Full-Wave Active Rectifier Requires No Diodes. Oct. 1, 2009. ... That’s effectively what I did with the rectifier circuit by using a single-rail op amp in an unusual way.

Gather together a few miscellaneous diodes and rectifiers. I chose the following: 1N118 Germanium diode (very low Vf) (1N34A is also suitable) 1N4151 Silicon diode (100mA) 1N4004 Silicon rectifier (1A ...

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 ...
