When the diode is forward biased and conducting electricity it will pass through any variations in the voltage being put into them, but when it is reverse biased and not conducting any electricity ...

Compared to the Diode to Ground method, the Schottky to Ground method offers slightly improved protection of downstream ICs due to the lower reverse bias clamping voltage. It's something to try if a ...

When a negative voltage is applied to the p-type side and a positive voltage to the n-type side, the p-n junction is reverse biased. This increases the built-in potential barrier, preventing the flow ...

A semiconductor diode is a non-linear device whose most outstanding feature is the fact that, basically, current is only allowed to flow in one direction. The diode is built by joining together two ...
