Described by its maker as the world's first of its kind, the LASORB component is described as an electrostatic-discharge (ESD) absorber that protects laser diodes, photodiodes and LEDs from single, ...

This application note discusses the factors that affect dynamic voltage sharing of series connected diodes and explains why co-packaged devices typically see little difference in the instantaneous ...

Varactor (or “varicap”) diodes are used primarily in radio-frequency (RF) circuits to provide a capacitance that can be varied by changing the applied voltage. These types of diodes often are used for ...
