A diode logic level step-up circuit. From Microchip app note DS41285A (PDF). For stepping up from 3.3V logic to 5V logic and assuming you are not safely within the TTL thresholds as described ...

A practical diode switch usually works by maintain one side of the diode at a bias point so that when a logic level is applied to the other point it will switch the diode from forward to reverse ...

Diodes Inc. manufactures and supplies application-specific standard products within the broad discrete, logic, analog, and mixed-signal semiconductor markets. The firm offers diodes, rectifiers ...

Beyond energy efficiency, we believe quantum thermal diodes could pave the way for thermal logic devices—thermal analogs to electronic diodes—allowing computation to be performed using heat ...
