When looking across the discrete components in your electronic armory, it is easy to overlook the humble diode. After all, one can be forgiven for the conclusion that the everyday version of this ...

This application note describes the diode selection process and snubber design for high voltage inverting flyback converter for subscriber-line interface card (SLIC) applications. Critical diode ...

For the first time, researchers in China have demonstrated a high-temperature superconducting diode effect, which allows a ...

As useful as the rectification properties of diodes are, the forward voltage drop they create can vary widely with temperature. This increases losses and can introduce tolerance errors in power ...

From Toshiba America Electronic Components (TAEC), the L-Flat surface-mount packages for high-power rectifier diodes use a lead-clamp structure to reduce mounting area by 50% or more From Toshiba ...

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Power Integrations (Nasdaq: POWI), the leader in high-voltage integrated circuits for energy-efficient power conversion, today announced that its 200 V Qspeed™ ...

The history of the diode is a fun one as it’s rife with accidental discoveries, sometimes having to wait decades for a use for what was found. Two examples of that are our first two topics: thermionic ...

There is little doubt that Raman Spectroscopy is exceptionally useful as it is already used in a wide range of industries and applications, including chemistry, physics, life, science, medicine, ...

Infrared nanoantenna could in theory achieve 70% efficiency with solar energy conversion. There are several approaches to try to achieve that goal. Diode Approach has had fundamental problems but ...
