This video explains how diodes function as directional components in electronic circuits. Diodes allow current to flow in ...

Diodes with the wrong markings create extra work for engineers and serve as a reminder that one should never assume anything when troubleshooting design problems Years ago I ran a small electronics ...

The addition of a components and an unused NC contact to a dc supply provides a power-reducing feature to a relay driver circuit. Electromagnetic relays need much less power for holding than they do ...

Relays continue to be useful and popular, but in low-power, battery operated applications they tend to be power wasters. The following relay economy circuits reduce coil power significantly by simply ...

The Jackson Systems TK-400 is a universal twinning/paralleling kit designed to allow a single thermostat to control multiple HVAC units. It was engineered to incorporate solid-state, diode relay logic ...

A semiconductor diode is an electronic component that allows current to flow in only one direction, acting like a one-way valve for electricity. It is commonly used for voltage regulation, converting ...
