By combining 49 of them he’s put together a soda bicarb diode steering circuit for a 7-segment display capable of showing the digits 0 to 9.

Diode forward voltage and temperature variations often degrade circuit performance, but that doesn’t always have to be the case. These design examples demonstrate methods in which it’s possible to ...

There will be an odd-looking circuit that seems to make no sense at all, an amplifier formed from just a forward-biased diode and a couple of resistors.

Many laser diode manufacturers supply application notes which suggest control circuits to drive their laser diodes. As an example, Figure 1 shows a typical discrete APC 1 laser diode driver solution ...

Innovations such as quantum thermal diodes, capable of directing heat flow in a specific direction, and quantum thermal transistors, which amplify heat flows similarly to how electronic ...
