The number 1, for example, needs only two segments to light up, and so for the row representing 1, there are only two diodes, i.e. two dabs of electrolyte where the rows overlap the columns for ...

Before the era of large-scale integration (LSI) semiconductor circuits, discrete logic circuits using the common ...

Although Fig. 2 is a simple circuit, it has the disadvantage of high forward voltage (V F) when the diode conducts. For example, the typical V F of a Schottky diode is ~0.4V and can result in ...

Left panel, superconducting rectifier circuit used to convert AC currents into DC using four superconducting diodes (blue) connected by superconducting interconnects and one smoothing capacitor (C ...
