Diodes are electronic components that conduct electric current in only one direction, functioning as a one-way valve. Diodes are manufactured using semiconductor materials such as silicon, germanium or selenium and are used as voltage regulators, signal rectifiers, oscillators and signal modulators / demodulators. Search by Specification | Learn More about Diodes
Zener diodes are PN junction devices that are designed to operate in the reverse-breakdown region. Search by Specification | Learn More about Zener Diodes
Diode arrays are composed of multiple discrete (usually unconnected) diodes on a single silicon chip. Diode arrays are important semiconductor products because they save assembly time and improve reliability over individually packaged diodes. In general, diode arrays use four or more diodes in a single package. Search by Specification | Learn More about Diode Arrays
High voltage diodes are designed for use in high-voltage applications. Search by Specification | Learn More about High Voltage Diodes
General-purpose diodes are electric components that conduct electric current in only one direction, functioning similarly to a one-way valve. Search by Specification | Learn More about General Purpose Diodes
Specialty diodes are specialty or proprietary products and accessories related to diodes. Learn More about Specialty Diodes
Light-emitting diodes (LED) are PN junction devices that give off light radiation when biased in the forward direction. LEDs are used in a wide variety of indication applications. Search by Specification | Learn More about Light Emitting Diodes (LED)
RF diodes are designed to handle high-power radio frequency (RF) signals in stereo amplifiers, radio transmitters, television monitors, and other RF or microwave devices. Search by Specification | Learn More about RF Diodes
Schottky diodes in their simplest form consist of a metal layer that contacts a semiconductor element. The metal / semiconductor junctions exhibit rectifying behavior (i.e., the current passes through the structure more readily with one polarity than the other). Search by Specification | Learn More about Schottky Diodes
Transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diodes are designed to limit over-voltages. They can dissipate high amounts of transient power in a short period of time. Search by Specification | Learn More about Transient Voltage Suppressor Diodes (TVS)
Step recovery diodes produce an abrupt turn-off (step) time by allowing a very fast release of stored charge when switching from forward to reverse bias, and from reverse to forward bias. Learn More about Step Recovery Diodes
Gunn diodes or transfer electron devices (TED) exhibit a negative resistance region. They are used in high-frequency applications, often for building RF oscillators. Impact ionization avalanche transit-time (IMPATT) diodes are designed to operate at very high frequency and power. They are used as elements in RF and microwave devices. Search by Specification | Learn More about GUNN and IMPATT Diodes
PIN diodes are three-layer semiconductor diodes consisting of an intrinsic layer separating heavily doped P and N layers. The charge stored in the intrinsic layer in conjunction with other diode parameters determines the resistance of the diode at RF and microwave frequencies. Search by Specification | Learn More about PIN Diodes
Current limiting diodes (CLD) regulate current over a wide voltage range. There are several types of current limiting diodes (CLD). Examples include a current regulator diode, constant current diode, and current limit diodes. Search by Specification | Learn More about Current Limiting Diodes
Power diodes are used mainly in high-power applications. They are built with large P-N junctions in order to pass large amounts of current and dissipate large amounts of heat. Search by Specification | Learn More about Power Diodes
