Demonstrating a Schottky diode in an AC and DC circuit. It should be noted that this isn’t a common way to use these devices, this was mostly to show the proportion of a 1 volt signal that the ...

By combining 49 of them he’s put together a soda bicarb diode steering circuit for a 7-segment display capable of showing the digits 0 to 9.

To understand the ideal-diode operation, we can use the Analog Devices LTC4358 as an example (Fig. 4). This 12-V/5-A IC contains an internal 20-mΩ MOSFET as the pass element and doesn’t require ...

Two of these were diode types. More examples of Williams VFC designs incorporating diode pumps are detailed in his fascinating (and entertaining!) narrative of his creative design process: “ The Zoo ...

Left panel, superconducting rectifier circuit used to convert AC currents into DC using four superconducting diodes (blue) connected by superconducting interconnects and one smoothing capacitor (C ...
