where I d is the direct current on the diode, V d is the forward bias voltage, I s is the inverse saturation current, and n is the ideality factor, between 1 and 2 (germanium: 1; silicon: 2). In power ...

During operation, the potential difference between these two terminals is quite low, between 0.2V and 2V (a difference of 0V exists only in ideal diodes). If the voltage on the cathode is greater than ...

Diodes Inc. has unveiled its high-current-density PowerDI323 product platform with new Schottky rectifiers and Zener products. The PowerDI323 product platform aims to meet the ...

AC and DC impedances of power converters are used for stability analysis of modern power systems at AC and DC interfaces. The basic idea for impedance extraction is AC sweep approach with sinusoidal ...

Some applications include: rectifiers, signal ORing, transistor turn off, freewheeling (inductors and motors) and of course specialized functions such as LEDs and voltage references. The diode, like ...

Here, we report on a rectifier based on a pentacene diode that can rectify an incoming a.c. signal at 50 MHz. At 14 MHz, a rectified voltage of 11 V for an a.c. voltage with a peak-to-peak ...
