 MBR360G schematic symbol |
With the introduction of semiconductor devices, the electronics technology has really taken off. Today, it is virtually impossible to think of an electronic device which does not contain any semiconductor devices. With the passage of time, different types of semiconductor devices have been invented. One of the most common semiconductor devices used today is the diode. A diode is basically a two terminal component which conducts current in a single direction. An ideal diode exhibits very low resistance in one direction and very high resistance in the opposite direction. There are many different types of diodes which are used in various applications. Some of the diode types include Zener diode, Schottky diode, photo diode, PIN diode, laser diode, and light emitting diode. Diodes are commonly employed in rectifiers and voltage regulators.
