P-n diodes are two-terminal devices that consist of two types of semiconductor materials (i.e., a p-type and an n-type ...

Called DZDH0401DW, it is designed to work with a p-channel mosfet in the high-side rail in systems up to 40V. It might better be described as a ‘nearly ideal diode controller’ as it draws some current ...

Where there is power there is heat, and where there is heat there is often a need to sense temperature (the most widely sensed physical variable). What we call temperature is our measurement of a ...

Find a downloadable version of this story in pdf format at the end of the story. Silicon Schottky diodes are used in power applications because of their low forward voltage drop, which allows lower ...

Announced as the industry's first commercially available Z-Rec 1700-V junction barrier Schottky diodes, the devices leverage silicon carbide's unique advantages over silicon to virtually eliminate ...

PIN diodes are often used as variable attenuators for RF signals in TV tuners, and for wideband RF in fixed equipment. These diodes can be mounted as discrete devices on a board, or integrated into ...
