what is diode?
What is diode? HELLO FRIENDS. DIODE It is a semiconductor device with two terminals, typically allowing the flow of current in one direction only. That’s why It is also called unidirectional component. It has two terminals named ANODE & CATHODE. AS SHOWN IN FIG THE SILVER BAND ON A SIDE INDICATES CATHODE. & THE SYMBOL IS ALSO SHOWN IN THIS IMAGE. A diode works only in forward biased. When we connect a diode in the circuit in correct position as shown in fig below, the diode will allows current to flow. & a diode oppose the current when connected in reverse biased as shown in fig. APPLICATION AC to DC rectifier. EX:- battery chargers, etc. Reverse protection as shown below To oppose the current flowing back to charger. Hey it’s TECH BECK.
