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
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
Zener diodes are PN junction devices that are designed to operate in the reverse-breakdown region. Search by Specification | Learn More about Zener Diodes
High voltage diodes are designed for use in high-voltage applications. Search by Specification | Learn More about High Voltage Diodes
Specialty diodes are specialty or proprietary products and accessories related to diodes. Learn More about Specialty Diodes
...and other power system devices. Power rectifiers include one or more diodes, electronic components that conduct current in only one direction. Single-diode power rectifiers omit the negative portion of the AC waveform. By contrast, multi-diode power... Search by Specification | Learn More about Power Rectifiers
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
Diode lasers use light-emitting diodes to produce stimulated emissions in the form of coherent light output. They are also known as laser diodes. Search by Specification | Learn More about Diode Lasers
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)
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)
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 Search by Specification | Learn More about GUNN and IMPATT 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
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 Search by Specification | Learn More about PIN Diodes
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
Voltage references are electronic circuits that produce a constant output voltage (reference) that is used to compare other voltages in a system. Search by Specification | Learn More about Voltage Reference Chips
