We have all had difficulty testing diodes in-circuit. Most DMM’s have a diode Vf function that measures forward drop, but what is the normal voltage drop? Analog VOM’s attempt to measure resistance of ...

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 ...

Abstract: This paper introduces an In-Circuit Reliability Test System (ICRTS) for SiC MOSFETs and diodes that can test a large number of high-voltage devices by emulating real life voltage and current ...

Abstract: A high-performance IMPATT diode test circuit has been developed which is very effective in reducing spurious oscillations. In this circuit, a 6-GHz germanium diode has been tested at ...

Atomtronics has the goal of developing a one-to-one analogy of electronic systems, components and devices with ultracold atoms trapped in optical lattices It is being researched at the University of ...

Here is the simple diode circuit and the I-V characteristic curve of a diode. The circuit shows a diode connected in series with a resistor and a DC voltage source. The I-V characteristic curve ...

This video explains how diodes function as directional components in electronic circuits. Diodes allow current to flow in ...
