  2. Load line (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_line_(electronics)

    The diode, a nonlinear device, is in series with a linear circuit consisting of a resistor, R and a voltage source, V DD. The characteristic curve (curved line), representing the current I through the diode for any given voltage across the diode V D, is an exponential curve.

    BZ-series silicon Zener diodes (e.g., BZY88C4V7 4.7V Zener diode) Other common numbering/coding systems (generally manufacturer-driven) include: GD-series germanium diodes (e.g., GD9) – this is a very old coding system; OA-series germanium diodes (e.g., OA47) – a coding sequence developed by Mullard, a UK company

  4. Rectifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectifier

    For low-power applications, double diodes in series, with the anode of the first diode connected to the cathode of the second, are manufactured as a single component for this purpose. Some commercially available double diodes have all four terminals available so the user can configure them for single-phase split supply use, half a bridge, or ...

    1N4001 diode in DO-41 axial package (through hole mount) A schematic symbol for general-purpose silicon rectifier diodes Current-voltage characteristics of a 1N4001 at different temperatures The 1N400x (or 1N4001 or 1N4000 [ 1 ] ) series is a family of popular one- ampere general-purpose silicon rectifier diodes commonly used in AC adapters for ...

  6. Series and parallel circuits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_circuits

    Series circuits were formerly used for lighting in electric multiple units trains. For example, if the supply voltage was 600 volts there might be eight 70-volt bulbs in series (total 560 volts) plus a resistor to drop the remaining 40 volts. Series circuits for train lighting were superseded, first by motor-generators, then by solid state devices.

  7. Diode modelling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diode_modelling

    The Shockley diode equation relates the diode current of a p-n junction diode to the diode voltage .This relationship is the diode I-V characteristic: = (), where is the saturation current or scale current of the diode (the magnitude of the current that flows for negative in excess of a few , typically 10 −12 A).

  8. Clipper (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clipper_(electronics)

    A simple diode clipper can be made with a diode and a resistor. This will remove either the positive, or the negative half of the waveform depending on the direction the diode is connected. The simple circuit clips at zero voltage (or to be more precise, at the small forward voltage of the forward biased diode) but the clipping voltage can be ...

  9. Current–voltage characteristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current–voltage...

    Tunnel diodes and Gunn diodes are examples of components that have negative resistance. Hysteresis vs single-valued: Devices which have hysteresis; that is, in which the current–voltage relation depends not only on the present applied input but also on the past history of inputs, have I–V curves consisting of families of closed loops. Each ...
