Frederik Dostal explains the rise of the ideal diode and how it can be used to develop more robust power systems.

In many applications where the input is not under system control but rather connects to the outside world, such as test equipment, instrumentation, and some sensing equipment, it is possible for input ...

For a long time, power meters were built using a combination of a base unit and an external power sensor connected via a cable. The RF signal was converted to a voltage signal in the power sensor, ...

Electricity doesn’t just flow freely in every direction—it needs control. That control comes from a tiny but powerful ...

Inlet unstart is a particularly critical issue associated with scramjets. That is the upstream displacement or disgorging of the original inlet shock system. Large flow spillage can be caused by the ...

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 ...

Dhananjay Gadre] happened across a useful little trick the other day. Take any old 1N4148 or 1N914 glass-package signal diode and wire it up right, and you’ve got yourself a nifty little IR ...

PLANO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Diodes Incorporated (Nasdaq: DIOD) today announced two flexible, high-speed automotive-compliant voltage translators for use in environments with ambient temperatures ...
