With a tuning range from 0.5V to 2.5V, the ZV950 series of hyperabrupt varactor diodes meets the requirements of 3V frequency control and filtering systems. The diodes are reported to be characterized ...

We always enjoy [w2aew’s] videos, and his latest on zener diodes is no exception. In it, he asserts that all Zener diodes are not created equal. Why? You’ll have to watch the video below to find out.

Diodes are one of the most important parts of any electronics project, and if you don't understand how they work you'll destroy any electronics project you work on. Thankfully, Adafruit has a video ...

SAXONBURG, Pa., Sept. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Coherent Corp. (NYSE: COHR), a global leader in photonics, announced today its membership in the Diode Technology Working Group within the STARFIRE ...

Determine the range of values of Vi that will maintain the Zener diode of the figure above in the “on” state. To solve for Vi(max), we use the formula But, since IR(max) is not yet known, we have to ...

If you're operating your truck in Canada, know that the nation's National Safety Code 11B in fact "does put a percentage" on the number of diodes that can be out before an LED lamp is in violation.

Most plastics don't conduct electricity, though that hasn't stopped researchers from trying to build plastic computer chips. Some groups have coaxed modest numbers of electrons through plastics using ...

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Changing police officers’ shifts to a 40-hour work week could save Syracuse taxpayers up to $3.4 million a year and allow the city to hire 27 more cops, according to a new report ...

Two semiconductor suppliers have taken aim at improving a mature product–Schottky diodes–either by integrating them on the same die with a MOSFET or reducing their power dissipation so they can be ...
