  3. Bridge circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge_circuit

    The best-known bridge circuit, the Wheatstone bridge, was invented by Samuel Hunter Christie and popularized by Charles Wheatstone, and is used for measuring resistance. It is constructed from four resistors, two of known values R 1 and R 3 (see diagram), one whose resistance is to be determined R x, and one which is variable and calibrated R 2.

    Fig. 4 shows the conduction states of the system, and from this we get the input space vectors shows in Fig. 5 [12] Fig 5: Conduction states of the Vienna Rectifier, for ia>0, ib,ic<0, valid in a 60 o {\displaystyle 60^{o}} sector of the period T1 sa, sb, and sc characterise the switching state of the system.

  5. Active rectification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_rectification

    Using these ideal diodes rather than standard diodes for solar electric panel bypass, reverse-battery protection, or bridge rectifiers reduces the amount of power dissipated in the diodes, improving efficiency and reducing the size of the circuit board and the weight of the heat sink required to deal with the power dissipation.

    Also called CLDs, constant-current diodes, diode-connected transistors, or current-regulating diodes. Crystal rectifiers or crystal diodes These are point-contact diodes. [27] The 1N21 series and others are used in mixer and detector applications in radar and microwave receivers. [24] [25] [26] The 1N34A is another example of a crystal diode. [38]

  7. Current–voltage characteristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current–voltage...

    Tunnel diodes and Gunn diodes are examples of components that have negative resistance. Hysteresis vs single-valued: Devices which have hysteresis; that is, in which the current–voltage relation depends not only on the present applied input but also on the past history of inputs, have I–V curves consisting of families of closed loops. Each ...

  8. Diode logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diode_logic

    Each input of a diode logic gate connects through a diode connected to a shared wired logic output. Depending on the voltage level of each input and direction of the diode, each diode may or may not be forward-biased. If any are forward-biased, the shared output wire will be one small forward voltage drop within the forward-biased diode's input.
