It is used to test electrical components such as diodes and capacitors. A multimeter has a dial surrounded by several symbols ...

Superconductivity is an advantageous property observed in some materials, which entails an electrical resistance of zero at ...

Most modern electronic devices consist of several key components: transistors, capacitors, resistors, inductors and diodes. Often, they are supplemented by additional components like crystals and ...

Your laptop charger likely has a large brick in the middle of the cable rather than being just a straight cord, but that ...

By slightly rearranging the diodes and capacitors, it is possible to comprise a circuit known as the Dickson charge pump. The Dickson charge pump (Figure 3) was patented by John F. Dickson in the late ...

Finally we look at the unknown diode. The unknown DUT, Vf = 0 volts. I temporarily cranked up the blue sensitivity and substituted small capacitors in place of the DUT to find that the DUT Cj is about ...

This leads to a second design, which imposes a DC bias voltage on the diode but prevents any signal from causing the capacitor to change from its precharged value. Photodiodes seem exotic ...

An elementary electronic device. Before the advent of integrated circuits (chips), all electronic components (transistors, resistors, capacitors, diodes) were individually packaged. However ...

An HT7533 is used for voltage regulation with a Schottky diode preventing return current to the solar cell, and a DW01 circuit is used to make sure that the capacitor doesn’t overcharge.
