  2. Shockley diode equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shockley_diode_equation

    Later he gives a corresponding equation for current as a function of voltage under additional assumptions, which is the equation we call the Shockley ideal diode equation. [3] He calls it "a theoretical rectification formula giving the maximum rectification", with a footnote referencing a paper by Carl Wagner , Physikalische Zeitschrift 32 , pp ...

  3. Power semiconductor device - Wikipedia

    An ideal diode should have the following characteristics: When forward-biased, the voltage across the end terminals of the diode should be zero, no matter the current that flows through it (on-state). When reverse-biased, the leakage current should be zero, no matter the voltage (off-state).

  4. Diode modelling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diode_modelling

    Ideal diode with a series voltage source and resistor. The I-V characteristic of the final circuit looks like this: I-V characteristic of an ideal diode with a series voltage source and resistor. The real diode now can be replaced with the combined ideal diode, voltage source and resistor and the circuit then is modelled using just linear elements.

  5. Electrical element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_element

    In some special cases, the constitutive relation simplifies to a function of one variable. This is the case for all linear elements, but also, for example, an ideal diode, which in circuit theory terms is a non-linear resistor, has a constitutive relation of the form = (). Both independent voltage and independent current sources can be ...

  6. Active rectification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_rectification

    Using these ideal diodes rather than standard diodes for solar electric panel bypass, reverse-battery protection, or bridge rectifiers reduces the amount of power dissipated in the diodes, improving efficiency and reducing the size of the circuit board and the weight of the heat sink required to deal with the power dissipation.

  9. p–n diode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P–n_diode

    A p–n diode is a type of semiconductor diode based upon the p–n junction. The diode conducts current in only one direction, and it is made by joining a p-type semiconducting layer to an n-type semiconducting layer. Semiconductor diodes have multiple uses including rectification of alternating current to direct current, in the detection of ...
