Ⅱ Working principle of Switching Diodes When the semiconductor diode is turned on, it is equivalent to the switch being closed (the circuit is turned on). When it is turned off, it is equivalent to the switch being opened (the circuit is turned off). Due to the unidirectional conduction...
requiring Zener voltages of higher voltage value, it is advisable to use a forward-biased diode in series with the Zener diode. This is because the Zener diode at higher voltage follows the avalanche breakdown principle, having a positive temperature of the coefficient...

Photodiode is a semiconductor device which converts light into electric current. Learn more about it's working principle and application only @Byju's.
It is a semiconductor device which isused to detect the light rays and mostly used as IR Receiver. Its construction is similar to the normalPN junction diodebut the working principle differs from it. As we know a PN junction allows small leakage currents when it is reverse biased so, this...
the battery's positive terminal aligns with the diode's positive connection, and the negative terminal coincides with the diode's negative connection. This arrangement underscores the significance of forward biasing in the operation of diodes, making it an indispensable principle in modern electronics....
