text: A diode is a two-terminal electronic component that conducts electricity primarily in one direction.
text: When the voltage of the circuit is higher than the reverse breakdown voltage, the diode is able to conduct electricity in the reverse direction (i.e. the “high resistance” direction).
text: Diodes nominally conduct electricity in one direction, and the voltage they apply follows a so-called “forward bias” orientation.
text: If you flip the battery around, the diode conducts electricity just fine.
text: When a diode is conducting electricity, it is said to be forward biased and it consumes a small amount of the voltage passing through it in the process.
