  2. Diode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diode

    Current–voltage characteristic of a p–n junction diode showing three regions: breakdown, reverse biased, forward biased. The exponential's "knee" is at V d. The leveling off region which occurs at larger forward currents is not shown. A diode's current–voltage characteristic can be approximated by four operating regions. From lower to ...

  3. Diode logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diode_logic

    Depending on the voltage level of each input and direction of the diode, each diode may or may not be forward-biased. If any are forward-biased, the shared output wire will be one small forward voltage drop within the forward-biased diode's input. If no diode is forward-biased then no diode will provide drive current for the output's load (such ...

  4. Tunnel diode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tunnel_diode

    In the tunnel diode, the dopant concentrations in the P and N layers are increased to a level such that the reverse breakdown voltage becomes zero and the diode conducts in the reverse direction. However, when forward-biased, an effect occurs called quantum mechanical tunneling which gives rise to a region in its voltage vs. current behavior ...

  5. Silicon controlled rectifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_controlled_rectifier

    When a negative voltage is applied to the anode and a positive voltage to the cathode, the SCR is in reverse blocking mode, making J1 and J3 reverse biased and J2 forward biased. The device behaves as two diodes connected in series. A small leakage current flows. This is the reverse blocking mode.

  6. Flyback diode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flyback_diode

    In Figure 2, a flyback diode was added in antiparallel with the solenoid. Instead of spiking to -300 V, the flyback diode only allows approximately -1.4 V of potential to be built up (-1.4 V is a combination of the forward bias of the 1N4007 diode (1.1 V) and the foot of wiring separating the diode and the solenoid [dubious – discuss]). The ...

  7. Shockley diode equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shockley_diode_equation

    Under reverse bias, the diode equation's exponential term is near 0, so the current is near the somewhat constant reverse current value (roughly a picoampere for silicon diodes or a microampere for germanium diodes, [1] although this is obviously a function of size).

  8. p–n diode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P–n_diode

    Band-bending diagram for p–n diode in forward bias. Diffusion drives carriers across the junction. Quasi-Fermi levels and carrier densities in forward biased p–n-diode. The figure assumes recombination is confined to the regions where majority carrier concentration is near the bulk values, which is not accurate when recombination-generation ...

  9. Clamper (electronics) - Wikipedia

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

    A negative unbiased clamp is the opposite of the equivalent positive clamp. In the positive cycle of the input AC signal, the diode is forward biased and conducts, charging the capacitor to the peak positive value of V IN. During the negative cycle, the diode is reverse biased and thus does not conduct.
