Products/Services for description of a diode

<B>Diode</B> Lasers
Diode Lasers - (305 companies)

Diode lasers use light-emitting diodes to produce stimulated emissions in the form of coherent light output. They are also known as laser diodes. Search by Specification | Learn More

<B>Diode</B> Arrays
Diode Arrays - (45 companies)

Diode arrays are composed of multiple discrete (usually unconnected) diodes on a single silicon chip. Diode arrays are important semiconductor products because they save assembly time and improve reliability over individually packaged diodes. In general, diode arrays use four or more diodes in a single package. Search by Specification | Learn More

High Voltage <B>Diodes</B>
High Voltage Diodes - (54 companies)

High voltage diodes are designed for use in high-voltage applications. Search by Specification | Learn More

Light Emitting <B>Diodes</B> (LED)
Light Emitting Diodes (LED) - (484 companies)

Light-emitting diodes (LED) are PN junction devices that give off light radiation when biased in the forward direction. LEDs are used in a wide variety of indication applications. Search by Specification | Learn More

<B>Diodes</B>
Diodes - (573 companies)

Diodes are electronic components that conduct electric current in only one direction, functioning as a one-way valve. Diodes are manufactured using semiconductor materials such as silicon, germanium or selenium and are used as voltage regulators, signal rectifiers, oscillators and signal modulators / demodulators. Search by Specification | Learn More

Transient Voltage Suppressor <B>Diodes</B> (TVS)
Transient Voltage Suppressor Diodes (TVS) - (61 companies)

Transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diodes are designed to limit over-voltages. They can dissipate high amounts of transient power in a short period of time. Search by Specification | Learn More

RF <B>Diodes</B>
RF Diodes - (31 companies)

RF diodes are designed to handle high-power radio frequency (RF) signals in stereo amplifiers, radio transmitters, television monitors, and other RF or microwave devices. Search by Specification | Learn More

GUNN and IMPATT <B>Diodes</B>
GUNN and IMPATT Diodes - (11 companies)

Gunn diodes or transfer electron devices (TED) exhibit a negative resistance region. They are used in high-frequency applications, often for building RF oscillators. Impact ionization avalanche transit-time (IMPATT) diodes are designed to operate at very high frequency and power. They are used as elements in RF and microwave devices. Search by Specification | Learn More

PIN <B>Diodes</B>
PIN Diodes - (45 companies)

PIN diodes are three-layer semiconductor diodes consisting of an intrinsic layer separating heavily doped P and N layers. The charge stored in the intrinsic layer in conjunction with other diode parameters determines the resistance of the diode at RF and microwave frequencies. Search by Specification | Learn More

General Purpose <B>Diodes</B>
General Purpose Diodes - (89 companies)

General-purpose diodes are electric components that conduct electric current in only one direction, functioning similarly to a one-way valve. Search by Specification | Learn More

Current Limiting <B>Diodes</B>
Current Limiting Diodes - (27 companies)

Current limiting diodes (CLD) regulate current over a wide voltage range. There are several types of current limiting diodes (CLD). Examples include a current regulator diode, constant current diode, and current limit diodes. Search by Specification | Learn More

Power <B>Diodes</B>
Power Diodes - (32 companies)

Power diodes are used mainly in high-power applications. They are built with large P-N junctions in order to pass large amounts of current and dissipate large amounts of heat. Search by Specification | Learn More

Tunnel <B>Diodes</B>
Tunnel Diodes - (16 companies)

Tunnel diodes are heavily doped P-N diodes in which electron tunneling from the conduction band in the N-type material to the valence band in the P-type region produces a region of negative resistance. This negative-resistance region is the most important area of operation. As the voltage is increased, the current decreases. This feature makes tunneling diodes especially useful in oscillators and radio frequency (RF) applications. Search by Specification | Learn More

Rectifier <B>Diodes</B>
Rectifier Diodes - (195 companies)

Rectifier diodes are designed for use in rectification circuits. Rectifiers are used to convert AC to DC. Search by Specification | Learn More

Schottky <B>Diodes</B>
Schottky Diodes - (125 companies)

Schottky diodes in their simplest form consist of a metal layer that contacts a semiconductor element. The metal / semiconductor junctions exhibit rectifying behavior (i.e., the current passes through the structure more readily with one polarity than the other). Search by Specification | Learn More
