Diodes used as chopper circuits

The figure shows the simplest chopper circuit. When the control voltage is zero volts, diode D1 is blocked and there is no output at the output. When the control voltage is positive 4V, D1 is forward biased. As long as the input signal level is lower than the voltage at point A, the input signal is chopped.

Characteristics of Light Emitting Diodes

The high level in the microcontroller is +5V, and the low level is 0V led: The voltage drop is fixed at 1.6v-1.7v; The current is also fixed at 3mA -10mA; //The current is too small, the light is too dim, the current is too dim, and it is abnormal. Therefore, a series resistor is used to make the voltage and current o

Use the "Diode" setting of a digital multimeter to measure diodes

Use the "Diode" setting of a digital multimeter to measure diodes Connect the red probe of the multimeter to one pole of the diode, and the black (COM) probe to the other pole. When the forward voltage drop is small, the red probe (positive pole of the battery in the meter) is connected to the posi

Teach you how to use a multimeter to detect the quality of ordinary diodes

　　The main faults of diodes are open circuit, short circuit and unstable voltage regulation. Among these three faults, the former fault is manifested by the increase of power supply voltage; the latter fault is manifested by the power supply voltage dropping to zero volts or the output being unstable. 　　Judgment of
