What is a P-N Junction? A p-n junction is a fundamental building block of modern electronics, formed by joining together two types of semiconductor materials: p-type (positive) and n-type (negative).

Although they are a simple device, diodes do have a number of traits to consider. These traits are often application dependent. Some applications include: rectifiers, signal ORing, transistor turn off ...
