It isn’t unusual to expect a precisely regulated voltage in an electronic project, but what about times when you need a precise current? Over on EDN, prolific [Stephen Woodward] explains how to use a ...

These automotive-grade Zener diodes in SOD-523 packaging bring protection to entertainment, ADAS, BMS, and other space-constrained applications. Toshiba Electronics Europe’s XCEZ series of ...

Abstract: the Zener diode is a common choice for MOSFET gate protection. Compared with conventional Zener diode, a novel integrated Zener diode with polysilicon structure for gate protection in 55nm ...

Part 1 provided an overview of intrinsically safe systems; this part looks at some of the electronics and implementations. Q: The high-level insight is useful, but what about the electronics that are ...

Abstract: Transient analysis of an electrostatic discharge (ESD) is important for development of a highly immune device and an IC. High nonlinearity of an ESD protection circuit makes it difficult to ...

In this article, we will explore the basic functions of the Zener Diode. This device resembles a compact cylinder, much like the conventional diode, with two terminals at the ends that can be wired or ...

Royalty-free licenses let you pay once to use copyrighted images and video clips in personal and commercial projects on an ongoing basis without requiring additional payments each time you use that ...

The purpose of this activity is to investigate the current vs. voltage characteristics of a PN junction diode. Written by Antoniu Miclaus and Doug Mercer of Analog Devices The current vs. voltage ...

Zener diodes are semiconductor devices that allow current to flow in both directions but specialize in current flowing in reverse. Also known as breakdown diodes, these diodes are the most common ...
