One of the most common parts and one of the earliest electronic devices is known to be a power diode. Its purpose is to limit the electric current’s ability to flow in one direction while obstructing ...

Researchers have found a way to make a key electronic component on a phenomenally tiny scale -- a single-molecule diode. Recently, at Arizona State University's Biodesign Institute, N.J. Tao and ...

Technological advances in the electronics industry have resulted in our digital cameras, computers, and cell phones drastically reducing in size. In order to maintain this momentum, there is a strong ...

Photo Diode chip active area sizes from 0.1mm to 3.0mm are available to provide the optimum balance between low dark current, high speed and light sensitivity. This allows for increased flexibility ...

In the realm of modern electronics, semiconductor diodes have emerged as fundamental components with diverse applications. One of their pivotal roles lies in the fields of rectification and voltage ...

When looking across the discrete components in your electronic armory, it is easy to overlook the humble diode. After all, one can be forgiven for the conclusion that the everyday version of this ...

Improvements in AC-DC power supply design are evolutionary, rather than revolutionary. It is easy to settle for tried and tested approaches because no one new design technique is likely to yield great ...

LedEngin, a Santa Clara, Calif. company making components for cleaner and more efficient lighting technology called LEDs, has raised $11 million in a third round of financing. The round was led by ...

Taiwan-based automotive diode component maker Actron Technology saw its net profits decrease 17.8% on year to NT$331 million (US$11.1 million) in 2012. The earnings translated into an EPS of NT$4.43 ...
