text: The alternating voltage to be rectified is applied between the cathode and the plate.
text: Thus, if an external voltage greater than and opposite to the built-in voltage is applied, a current will flow and the diode is said to be "turned on" as it has been given an external forward bias.
text: Their low efficiency required a much higher forward voltage to be applied (typically 1.4 to 1.7 V per "cell", with multiple cells stacked so as to increase the peak inverse voltage rating for application in high voltage rectifiers), and required a large heat sink (often an extension of the diode's metal substrate), much larger than the later silicon diode of the same current ratings would require.
text: When a a reverse voltage is applied, a reverse saturation current flows through the diode.
text: When sufficient forward voltage is applied, a current flows in the forward direction.
text: A negative voltage is in turn applied to the N-type semiconductor, and as negative charges repel, they push electrons into the depletion region and closer to the P side of the diode.
text: In normal diodes, the breakdown voltage is very high and the diode gets damaged totally if a voltage above the breakdown diode is applied, but in Zener diodes, the breakdown voltage is not as high and does not lead to permanent damage of the zener diode if the voltage is applied.
text: In normal diodes, the breakdown voltage is very high and the diode gets damaged totally if a voltage above the breakdown diode is applied, but in Zener diodes, the breakdown voltage is not as high and does not lead to permanent damage of the zener diode if the voltage is applied.
text: An ideal diode is a diode that acts like a perfect conductor when voltage is applied forward biased and like a perfect insulator when voltage is applied reverse biased.
text: A diode should not conduct current when voltage is applied the wrong way.
text: Now let’s see the behavior of the diode when proper voltage is applied.
text: When such voltage is applied, the majority charge carriers in both regions get attracted towards source such that large numbers of immobile ions are created and enter into the P and N regions.
text: If a suitable positive voltage (forward bias) is applied between the two ends of the PN junction, it can supply free electrons and holes with the extra energy they require to cross the junction as the width of the depletion layer around the PN junction is decreased.
text: As it has the property of maintaining the low voltages even though high voltages are applied.
text: When the proper forward voltage is applied, these LEDs light up with some brilliant colors.
text: For general use, where the size of the forward voltage drop is less important, silicon diodes are better because they are less easily damaged by heat when soldering, they have a lower resistance when conducting, and they have very low leakage currents when a reverse voltage is applied.
text: (C dif ) diffusion capacitance, which is caused by the accumulation of mobile charges in the base when a forward voltage is applied; (C o ) casing capacitance; (L r ) inductance of contact conductors; (A) and (B) terminals.
text: When a small voltage is applied, tunnel current starts to flow.
text: Breakdown voltage is a parameter of a diode that defines the largest reverse voltage that can be applied without causing an exponential increase in the leakage current in the diode.
text: However, some silicon APDs employ alternative doping and beveling techniques compared to traditional APDs that allow greater voltage to be applied (> 1500 V) before breakdown is reached and hence a greater operating gain (> 1000).
text: In the forward characteristics of a diode once the voltage is applied then the junction starts increasing rapidly.
text: A diode will become forward biased or turn on when a positive voltage is applied to push current through the diode in its forward direction.
text: As indicated by the figure, when a current flows in a diode and a reverse voltage is suddenly applied, if the current cuts off, an extremely large recovery current flows during the trr period resulting in loss.
text: If the voltage is applied is greater than the trigger voltage, then the shockley diode switches on and has very low resistance.
text: An enhancement mode MOSFET allows a current to flow only if a positive voltage is applied, while depletion mode MOSFETs allows a current to flow even if no voltage difference is applied.
text: The breakdown starts when reverse voltage is applied.
text: If a reverse voltage (V R ) is now suddenly applied, as shown in Fig.
