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 vary from country to country, or engineering ...
Diode (all types, including LED), thyristor "D" is preferred for various types of diodes DL: Delay line: DN: Diode network: may be simplified to "D" for diode DS: Display, general light source, lamp, signal light: F: Fuse: FB: Ferrite bead: sometimes changed to "L" for inductor, though "E" was used in the currently inactive standard IEEE 315 ...
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.
The basic components of analog circuits are wires, resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes, and transistors. Analog circuits are very commonly represented in schematic diagrams, in which wires are shown as lines, and each component has a unique symbol.

Light-emitting diode (LED) – a diode that emits light; Photodiode – passes current in proportion to incident light Avalanche photodiode – photodiode with internal gain; Solar Cell, photovoltaic cell, PV array or panel – produces power from light; DIAC (diode for alternating current), Trigger Diode, SIDAC) – often used to trigger an SCR
The symbol used to represent a particular type of diode in a circuit diagram conveys the general electrical function to the reader. There are alternative symbols for some types of diodes, though the differences are minor. The triangle in the symbols points to the forward direction, i.e. in the direction of conventional current flow.
In Figure 2, a flyback diode was added in antiparallel with the solenoid. Instead of spiking to -300 V, the flyback diode only allows approximately -1.4 V of potential to be built up (-1.4 V is a combination of the forward bias of the 1N4007 diode (1.1 V) and the foot of wiring separating the diode and the solenoid [dubious – discuss]). The ...
