Expensive semiconductor laser diodes have no tolerance for fast voltage or current transients. To minimize the risk of damage, a standard JFET-clamp circuit shorts the laser when there is no supply ...
External TVS diodes can be used to supplement the internal clamping diodes of ICs. Surge ability of silicon TVS diodes are related to size. External TVS diodes can be 10x larger than internal clamping ...
Littelfuse, Inc. has introduced the low-capacitance SP3014 Series TVS Diode Array (SPA® Diodes), to provide protection for electronic equipment that may experience destructive electrostatic ...
Littelfuse, Inc. has introduced the SPHV (uni-directional) and SPHV-C (bi-directional) Series 200W Discrete TVS Diode Arrays (SPA® Diodes), that are designed to protect sensitive equipment from damage ...
And here it is, modelled using LTSpice. It is the same circuit as the classic simple precision rectifier (set to pass the negative half-sine), but with the non-inverting input of the op-amp connected ...
A diode makes 12V car electronics safer and simpler. It cuts extra parts, reduces power loss, and keeps important systems ...
[Afroman] is back again with another great tutorial video on the basics of electronics. This time it’s zener diodes. Page three or four of every ‘beginners guide to electronics’ covers a diode as, “a ...
Littelfuse, Inc. has launched the TPSMB Asymmetrical Series TVS Diodes (TPSMB2412CA, TPSMB2616CA, TPSMB2818CA, TPSMB3018CA). These first-to-market devices are specifically designed for 12V battery ...
