Source sentences:
text: The diodes are reversed so that the cathodes are connected to the inputs and the anodes are connected together to provide the output.
text: With this setup, the diode only consumes current when there is reverse current.
text: Similarly, when the diode is reversed biased, it acts as a perfect insulator with zero current through it.
text: Practically, when the diode is reversed biased the potential barrier increases, due to which junction resistance increases.
text: The diode will be reversed biased when the switch is closed against the power supply and which doesn’t exist in the circuit for practical purposes.
text: With this arrangement, the diode only consumes current when there is reverse current.
