Frederik Dostal explains the rise of the ideal diode and how it can be used to develop more robust power systems.

Atomtronics has the goal of developing a one-to-one analogy of electronic systems, components and devices with ultracold atoms trapped in optical lattices It is being researched at the University of ...

This video explains how diodes function as directional components in electronic circuits. Diodes allow current to flow in ...

Expensive semiconductor laser diodes have no tolerance for fast voltage or current transients. To minimize the risk of damage, a standard JFET-clamp circuit shorts the laser when there is no supply ...

External TVS diodes can be used to supplement the internal clamping diodes of ICs. Surge ability of silicon TVS diodes are related to size. External TVS diodes can be 10x larger than internal clamping ...

It isn’t unusual to expect a precisely regulated voltage in an electronic project, but what about times when you need a ...

[Hales] has been on a mission for a while to make his own diodes and put them to use and now he’s succeeded with diodes made of sodium bicarbonate and water, aluminum tape and soldered copper. By ...

A diode design can make terahertz signals stronger & work better, helping build smaller devices for imaging, sensing, and wireless communication.
