The history of the diode is a fun one as it’s rife with accidental discoveries, sometimes having to wait decades for a use for what was found. Two examples of that are our first two topics ...

Selenium diodes are another example of an early discovery followed by a delayed practical use. The first selenium diode was constructed in 1886 by C.E. Fitts but was not made practical until the ...

The traditional diode AM detector is shown in Figure 1. This detector has to operate at zero DC potential, so if the source has a DC component, the R-C combination is needed to block the DC in the ...

From primitive crystal detectors to today's advanced exponential logarithmic amplifiers, RF power detection has come a long way.

Heated diodes detect leaks of HFC, CFC, HCFC, HFO, H2N2 (Tracer Gas), and other refrigerant blends. The Fieldpiece DR58 Heated Diode Leak Detector performs particularly well with R410A and sniffs ...

However, so far, practical implementations of spin-diode microwave detectors have been limited by the necessity to apply a magnetic field.

III–V single-photon avalanche diodes are the most practical tools available for detecting ultraweak near-infrared light.

The Schottky diode is an order of magnitude faster than conventional PN diodes making them ideal for RF and microwave applications. It has a low junction capacitance and excellent sensitivity and ...

Manufacturers are calling for pulsed laser diodes with shorter and shorter pulses, higher and higher pulse frequencies, and - on the detector side - more and more sensitive sensors that allow the ...

PLANO, Texas-- (BUSINESS WIRE)--Diodes Incorporated (Nasdaq: DIOD) today announced the PI3EQX10612 / PI3EQX10312 2-port 10Gbps linear ReDriver™ devices with integrated USB-C ® detection for ...
