This Design Idea describes a method by which you can detect and assess air or liquid fluid flow using an externally heated semiconductor diode. Airflow across the heated diode reduces its temperature, ...

For the majority of patients, scaling and root planing (SRP) is the gold standard for nonsurgical periodontal therapy. But for those patients with diabetes or compromised health, adjunctive therapies, ...

From Toshiba America Electronic Components (TAEC), the L-Flat surface-mount packages for high-power rectifier diodes use a lead-clamp structure to reduce mounting area by 50% or more compared to ...

There is little doubt that Raman Spectroscopy is exceptionally useful as it is already used in a wide range of industries and applications, including chemistry, physics, life, science, medicine, ...

This application note describes the diode selection process and snubber design for high voltage inverting flyback converter for subscriber-line interface card (SLIC) applications. Critical diode ...

Among passive electronic components, the fuse and diode are well known, well understood, widely used, and essential to many circuits and systems. Still, each has inherent shortcomings that make them ...

Optogenetics might be a relatively unknown area of neuroscience, but it's one that, thanks to some new research, could soon find itself (and its rodental subjects) in the spotlight. For the ...
