Diode circuit implementing AND in active-high logic. Note: in analog implementation exact output currents will be different from +5V supply. This circuit mirrors the previous gate: the diodes are reversed so that each input connects to the cathode of a diode and all anodes are connected together to the output, which has a pull-up resistor.
The problem with matrix circuits is that, when several notes are pressed at once, the current can flow backward through the circuit and trigger "phantom keys" that cause "ghost" notes to play. To avoid triggering unwanted notes, most keyboard matrix circuits have diodes soldered with the switch under each key of the musical keyboard.
A diode-OR circuit is used in electronics to isolate two or more voltage sources. There are two typical implementations: There are two typical implementations: When a DC supply voltage needs to be generated from one of a number of different sources, for example when terminating a parallel SCSI bus, a very simple circuit like this can be used:
Separable assembly or sub-assembly (e.g. printed circuit assembly) AT: Attenuator or isolator: BR: Bridge rectifier (four diodes in a package) often changed to "D" for diode BT, BAT: Battery or battery holder: often shortened to "B" C: Capacitor: CB: Circuit breaker: CN: Capacitor network: may be simplified to "C" for capacitor D, CR: Diode ...
A diode matrix is a two-dimensional grid of wires: each "intersection" wherein one-row crosses over another has either a diode connecting them, or the wires are isolated from each other. It is one of the popular techniques for implementing a read-only memory. A diode matrix is used as the control store or microprogram in many

An integrated circuit (IC) on a printed circuit board. This is called a solid-state circuit because all of the electrical activity in the circuit occurs within solid materials. Solid-state electronics are semiconductor electronics: electronic equipment that use semiconductor devices such as transistors, diodes and integrated circuits (ICs).
A diode-connected transistor is a method of creating a two-terminal rectifying device (a diode) out of a three-terminal transistor. A characteristic of diode-connected transistors is that they are always in the saturation region for metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) and junction-gate field-effect transistors ...
