PN Diode Switching Times
PN Diode Switching Times: A P-N junction diode may be used as an electrical switch. The electrical circuit can be made 'on' and 'off' by forward biasing or reverse biasing…

Maximum Power Transfer Theorem: Here, the maximum power transfer theorem has been discussed for resistive loads. The maximum power transfer theorem states that the maximum power is delivered from a…
Directional Relays: Selective protection cannot be achieved with time graded overcurrent protection systems in ring or loop systems as well as in radial circuits with two end power supply. A…
Thermistor Operation: The word thermistor is a combination of thermal and resistor. A thermistor is a resistor with definite thermal characteristics. Most thermistors have a negative temperature coefficient (NTC), but…
Voltage Variable Capacitors: VVC Operation - Voltage Variable Capacitors diodes (VVCs) are also known as variÂcaps, varactors, and as tuning diodes. Basically, a Voltage Variable Capacitors is a reverse biased…
Photodiode Operation and Characteristics: Photodiode Operation - When a pn-Junction is reverse biased, a small reverse saturation current flows due to thermally generated holes and electrons being swept across the…
Silicon Bilateral Switch: It might be convenient to think of a Silicon Bilateral Switch (SBS) as an SUS with a gate terminal, or as a low-current TRIAC. However, the SBS is…
Amplifiers with Negative Feedback Articles: Voltage Series Negative Feedback Amplifier: In a negative feedback amplifier, a small portion of the output voltage is fed back to the input. When the…
