Electricity doesn’t just flow freely in every direction—it needs control. That control comes from a tiny but powerful component: the diode. In this video, you’ll learn how diodes work, why they allow ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. A most critical device in an optical networking system is the laser diode, since it’s responsible for converting the ...

An RC circuit in series with the coil allows full-current turn-on for reliable relay operation, then reduces the current to save power. Fellow engineer Sanjay R. Chendvankar of Mumbai, India, recently ...
