Learn how to use a Zener diode, a series resistor, and a load resistor to create a stable and precise output voltage from a power supply, using basic formulas and components.

In this course, we will explore various topics related to electronic devices and pulse techniques, including diode circuit models, operational amplifiers (OP-AMPs), flip-flops, counters, memory ...

The circuit is simple enough: it uses a capacitor, a resistor, and a pair of diodes (one of them a zener diode). He uses this basic circuit to drive simple regulators with input and output filter ...

Figure 3 Two LED drivers operating in series or parallel let you boost zener voltage or current. Figure 4 shows an assembled zener-diode-tester circuit. The zener diode under test is On Semiconductor ...

The simple Diode and LED Tester presented here costs under £5 to build (including all components, the battery and a cheap case) and will indicate the polarity of almost all types of LED and other ...

The recent discovery of the tunnel diode with band-widths extending into the kilomegacycle region has prompted investigation of their use in the logic and control portions of high-speed computers.

Abstract: A new limiter circuit for use with electronic analogue computers has been developed from the basic diode bridge circuit. This limiter is simple in construction, has only one adjustment and ...
