After lying dormant in research laboratories for decades, silicon carbide (SiC) is beginning to realize its potential as a substrate material. “[Transistor inventor William B.] Shockley called it the ...

Infineon is shipping the CoolSiC Schottky diode 2000 V G5 product family – its first discrete SiC diode with a breakdown voltage of 2000V – in a TO-247-2 package. The product family fits applications ...

Zener diodes keep voltage stable by allowing current to flow in reverse at a specific level. This video explains how they work and how Zener and avalanche breakdown help regulate voltage in circuits.

The Zener diode is similar to a general-purpose signal diode which consists of a silicon PN junction. It is a special kind of diode in which current is allowed to flow in the forward direction in the ...

The circuit was designed to provide a means for measuring the operating voltage of zener diodes before applying on a circuit. Zener Diode – a special kind of diode that permits the flow of current in ...
