• Definitions:
• Rectifier. An electronic device with two wires or terminals. A rectifier allows electrical current to flow through in only one direction and is ...
• a semiconductor device that converts alternating current to direct current.
• a electrical component that will only allow current to pass in one direction.
• A solid-state device that allows electricity to flow in only one direction.
• A two-electrode valve (or more modernly, electrical device). A diode is more commonly associated with a valve that lets current pass from the anode to the cathode, but not the reverse, thereby rectifying a signal or current.
• A diode is a device that in simplest terms only allows electricity to flow in one direction. A diode has two ends: a cathode (-) and an anode (+). Current can only flow from the anode to the cathode, but not the other direction. Diodes are sometimes used in keyboard hacks.
• A device having two terminals and has a low resistance to electrical current in one direction and a high resistance in the other direction.
• A two-terminal device that will conduct electric current more easily in one direction than in the other.
• The basic, one-way gate for electrons in electronic devices.
• a semiconductor device made up of a single junction between an N-Type and a P-Type area. Diodes allow conduction in only one direction.
• a two-element device which passes a signal in one direction only. They are used most commonly to convert AC to DC, because they pass the positive part of the wave, and block the negative part of the AC signal, or, if they are reversed, they pass only the negative part and not the positive part. ...
• A two-terminal semiconductor device, that acts as a one-way valve which allows the electrical current to only flow in one direction. Typically a Silicon diode has a forward voltage drop of approximately 0.7 to 1.0 volt across the two terminals at full load.
• a semiconductive material which mainly lets energy travel one direction and not the other. Light-Emitting Diodes (LEDs) are used for the numeric displays on microwaves and VCRS as well as for lasers.
• A valve with only two electrodes - an anode and a cathode.
• A two-terminal semiconductor device that will allow current to flow through it in only one direction. With the proper voltage polarity across the device, it will act as a conductor. When the voltage polarity is reversed, the device will act as a nonconductor, allowing no current to flow.
• a component, either semiconductor or thermionic, that permits current to flow through it in one direction only
• a two-element device which passes a signal in one direction only.
• Diodes are used in pairs (positive and negative) to change the alternator output from alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC).
• A two-electrode device with an anode and a cathode that passes current in only one direction. It may be designed as an electron tube or as a semiconductor device.
• a thermionic tube having two electrodes; used as a rectifier a semiconductor that consists of a p-n junction
• In electronics, a diode is a component that restricts the direction of flow of charge carriers. Essentially, it allows an electric current to flow in one direction, but blocks it in the opposite direction. Thus, the diode can be thought of as an electronic version of a check valve. ...
