An ESD protection diode is a type of Zener diode. When a diode is reverse-biased, little current flows from cathode to anode. However, when the reverse bias exceeds a certain point (called the reverse breakdown voltage), the reverse current suddenly increases. As the reverse...
ESD refers to the discharge of electric charges that occurs when substances charged with charges of different polarities come close to each other or come into contact with each other. Figure 1 Triboelectric series All matter is composed of atoms, each of which consists of ...

The p-n junction is the heart of a diode's operation. When these two semiconductor materials are brought together, they form a natural barrier, preventing electrons from the n-type material from combining with holes from the p-type material. However, when an external voltage is applied, this...
Describes what an optical module is and FAQs, including the fundamentals, appearance and structure, key performance counters, common types, and naming conventions of optical modules, causes of optical module failures and corresponding protection measures, types of optical modules supported by CloudEngine ...
ADiodeis anelectronic componentthat allows current to flow in one direction only. It is a device that consists of a p-n junction. 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 ...
What is a laser diode?What is a laser diode?What is a laser diode? The LASER in Laser Diode is an acronym for 'Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation'. Semiconductor Laser Features and Applications Semiconductor Laser is used for a variety of applications by taking advantage ...
I have various interfaces in my system I would like to protect against system-level ESD, could you provide some recommendations for me including for USB, push-button, HDMI, Ethernet? Below are the latest recommendations of devices for multiple interfaces that ...
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) is the ability of a device or system to operate satisfactorily in its electromagnetic environment without causing intolerable electromagnetic interference to any device in its environment. Therefore, EMC includes two requirements: on the one hand, it means that the ...
1.Avalanche diode for static maintenance.This is also a method often used in the design.The typical method is to connect an avalanche diode to the ground in parallel in the key signal line. This method uses avalanche diode to respond quickly and has the ability of stable clamping.It can co...
