This Design Idea describes a versatile test circuit for zener diodes after yet another misread zener diode had infiltrated the ranks of 1N4148 diodes assembled on a pc board. As a bonus, the circuit ...

This video explains how diodes function as directional components in electronic circuits. Diodes allow current to flow in ...

For the longest time, Zener diode regulators have been one of those circuits that have been widely shared and highly misunderstood. First timers have tried to use it to power up their experiments and ...

Although 5V-powered logic isstill common in many applications,most FPGAs support interfacelevels of 3.3V and lower. When youconnect an FPGA to higher voltagelevels, the FPGA’s application ...
