  2. Diode matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diode_matrix

    In schematic diagrams, the word lines are usually horizontal, and the bit lines are usually vertical. The control store on some minicomputers was one or more programmable logic array chips. The "blank" PLA from the chip manufacturer came with a diode matrix or transistor matrix with a diode (or transistor) at every intersection.

  3. Diode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diode

    Various semiconductor diodes. Left: A four-diode bridge rectifier.Next to it is a 1N4148 signal diode.On the far right is a Zener diode.In most diodes, a white or black painted band identifies the cathode into which electrons will flow when the diode is conducting.

  4. Electronic symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_symbol

    Common circuit diagram symbols (US ANSI symbols) An electronic symbol is a pictogram used to represent various electrical and electronic devices or functions, such as wires, batteries, resistors, and transistors, in a schematic diagram of an electrical or electronic circuit. These symbols are largely standardized internationally today, but may ...

    Bridge rectifier (four diodes in a package) often changed to "D" for diode BT, BAT: Battery or battery holder: often shortened to "B" C: Capacitor: CB: Circuit breaker: CN: Capacitor network: may be simplified to "C" for capacitor D, CR: Diode (all types, including LED), thyristor "D" is preferred for various types of diodes DL: Delay line: DN ...

  6. Load line (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_line_(electronics)

    In graphical analysis of nonlinear electronic circuits, a load line is a line drawn on the current–voltage characteristic graph for a nonlinear device like a diode or transistor. It represents the constraint put on the voltage and current in the nonlinear device by the external circuit.

  8. Circuit diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_diagram

    A circuit diagram (or: wiring diagram, electrical diagram, elementary diagram, electronic schematic) is a graphical representation of an electrical circuit. A pictorial circuit diagram uses simple images of components, while a schematic diagram shows the components and interconnections of the circuit using standardized symbolic representations.

  9. Diode–transistor logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diodetransistor_logic

    Diodetransistor logic (DTL) is a class of digital circuits that is the direct ancestor of transistortransistor logic. It is called so because the logic gating functions AND and OR are performed by diode logic , while logical inversion (NOT) and amplification (providing signal restoration) is performed by a transistor (in contrast with ...
