How to Create Square Waves in MATLAB

... Diodes are “one-way” devices that only allow current to flow in one direction. An LED is a diode that emits light when sufficient current is flowing through it. Diodes are used in many, many applications such as: • LED flashlights and light bulbs provide very bright light and use significantly less ...

... equivalent to two diodes connected back to back. A pair of back-to-back diodes can't conduct. If a small voltage is applied to the base (enough to remove the depletion layer in the lower junction), current flows from emitter to base like a normal diode. Once current is flowing, it sweeps straight th ...

Diode



In electronics, a diode is a two-terminal electronic component that conducts primarily in one direction (asymmetric conductance); it has low (ideally zero) resistance to the flow of current in one direction, and high (ideally infinite) resistance in the other. A semiconductor diode, the most common type today, is a crystalline piece of semiconductor material with a p–n junction connected to two electrical terminals. A vacuum tube diode has two electrodes, a plate (anode) and a heated cathode. Semiconductor diodes were the first semiconductor electronic devices. The discovery of crystals' rectifying abilities was made by German physicist Ferdinand Braun in 1874. The first semiconductor diodes, called cat's whisker diodes, developed around 1906, were made of mineral crystals such as galena. Today, most diodes are made of silicon, but other semiconductors such as selenium or germanium are sometimes used.
