  2. Zener diode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zener_diode

    For example, a diode with a Zener breakdown voltage of 3.2 V exhibits a voltage drop of very nearly 3.2 V across a wide range of reverse currents. The Zener diode is therefore well suited for applications such as the generation of a reference voltage (e.g. for an amplifier stage), or as a voltage stabilizer for low-current applications. [2]

  3. Wiring diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiring_diagram

    An automotive wiring diagram, showing useful information such as crimp connection locations and wire colors. These details may not be so easily found on a more schematic drawing. A wiring diagram is a simplified conventional pictorial representation of an electrical circuit. It shows the components of the circuit as simplified shapes, and the ...

  4. Diode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diode

    The most common function of a diode is to allow an electric current to pass in one direction (called the diode's forward direction), while blocking it in the opposite direction (the reverse direction). Its hydraulic analogy is a check valve.

  5. Silicon controlled rectifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_controlled_rectifier

    If the reverse voltage is increased, then at critical breakdown level, called the reverse breakdown voltage (V BR), an avalanche occurs at J1 and J3 and the reverse current increases rapidly. SCRs are available with reverse blocking capability, which adds to the forward voltage drop because of the need to have a long, low-doped P1 region.

  6. Relay logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relay_logic

    Example Ladder Logic Diagram The schematic diagrams for relay logic circuits are often called line diagrams, because the inputs and outputs are essentially drawn in a series of lines. A relay logic circuit is an electrical network consisting of lines, or rungs, in which each line or rung must have continuity to enable the output device.

  7. Rectifier - Wikipedia

    The above diagram shows the voltage waveforms of the reservoir performance when supplied from a voltage source with near zero impedance, such as a mains supply. Both voltages start from zero at time t=0 at the far left of the image, then the capacitor voltage follows the rectified AC voltage as it increases, the capacitor is charged and current ...

  9. H-bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H-bridge

    An H-bridge is built with four switches (solid-state or mechanical). When the switches S1 and S4 (according to the first figure) are closed (and S2 and S3 are open) a positive voltage is applied across the motor. By opening S1 and S4 switches and closing S2 and S3 switches, this voltage is reversed, allowing reverse operation of the motor.
