Diodes are essential components found in electronic circuits. They allow current to flow in one direction while blocking it in the other. With time and usage, diodes can become defective, leading to ...

To measure a zener diode’s breakdown voltage, you need a dc voltage source whose voltage exceeds that of the zener voltage. In Figure 1, resistor R SER provides voltage drop between V IN and V ZEN. In ...

When you need a multimeter for testing electrical equipment around the home, it's vital to know what all those symbols around the dial mean.

Abstract: In general, measuring electronic circuits can only use ordinary measuring tools or manually. But as technology develops, measuring electrical circuits does not only use manual tools but can ...

Here is a simple tester for Hobbyists. This LED Component tester can test the integrity of electronic components from resistors to ICs before soldering. It reduces the job of testing the components ...

Thermal imagers are invaluable to help quickly troubleshoot electrical equipment, panels, and transformers but electricians and maintenance technicians often do not have access to one when they need ...
