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.

The diode transmits electrical current at room temperature, and its design lends itself to easy, ... Low Power Computer Circuits, Memory Date: November 15, 2005 Source: Ohio State University ...

Atomtronic Circuits of Diodes and Transistors in Physic Review Letters. From Physorg: Atomtronics probably won’t replace electronics. “Atoms are sluggish compared to electrons, and that means that you ...

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 ...

The value of R1 is determined by the maximum laser current required (in this case, 250 mA), adjusted by the laser diode's typical forward voltage of 2.0 V as given on the datasheet. Solving for R1 ...

Expensive semiconductor laser diodes have no tolerance for fast voltage or current transients. To minimize the risk of damage, a standard JFET-clamp circuit shorts the laser when there is no supply ...

Newport has developed a diode laser current driver circuit with noise characteristics that it says are as much as 10 times lower than currently available. The company also claims that the circuit ...

Plastic diodes to shape future circuits Jan. 12, 2006 Most plastics don't conduct electricity, though that hasn't stopped researchers from trying to build plastic computer chips.
