A conventional low-voltage silicon diode has a forward voltage drop of about 0.7V and a relatively low maximum reverse voltage, for example with the 1N4001 rectifier it’s 50V. For the higher ...
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. has introduced 16 new 650-V and 1,200-V silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky diodes in the ...
By putting in four layers, instead of the three used in transistors, the Shockley Diode could do more than a transistor. For one, it acted like a rectifier, able to turn alternating current into ...
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. introduced 16 new 650 V and 1200 V silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky diodes in the ...
For functionality, Mesa/Boogie has also fitted a Variac switch, which works alongside the amp’s switchable rectifiers – which, in turn, toggle between tube and silicon diode rectifier modes ...
