Integrated Circuits As all these arrays of components, microscopic circuits and semiconductor wafer material base are integrated together to form a single chip, hence, it is called an integrated circuit or integrated chip or microchip. Electronic circuits are developed using individual or discrete electr...
Types of Fuses Fuses play an essential role in protecting electronic devices from excessive currents. Here let’s explore various types of fuses, their unique features, and applications. DC Fuse DC fuses are designed specifically for direct current (DC) circuits. These fuses are essential in safeg...
Early diodes werevacuumtubes, an evacuated glass or metalelectron tubecontaining twoelectrodes—a negatively chargedcathodeand a positively chargedanode. These were used asrectifiersand as detectors in electroniccircuitssuch asradioand television receivers. When a positive voltage is applied to the anode ...
