Diodes and transistors are essential components of digital circuits, as they can perform basic logic operations and act as switches for controlling current flow.

Learn how to test diodes and transistors, common electronic components, using a multimeter and some basic techniques. Identify the terminals, interpret the results, troubleshoot the errors, and ...

Although these days transistor-transistor logic (TTL) is the most common, diode-transistor logic (DTL) once was a regular sight, as well as diode-resistor logic (DRL).

GaN transistor reverse conduction voltage (V RC) depends on the threshold voltage (V TH) and OFF-state gate bias (V GS), as there is no body diode.Since V TH is typically higher than the turn-on ...

Until now, engineers required an external Schottky diode in parallel with the GaN transistor to reduce dead-times via a controller. However, this results in extra work, time and cost. The CoolGaN G5 ...

GaN transistor reverse conduction voltage (V RC) is dependent on the threshold voltage (V TH) and the OFF-state gate bias (V GS) due to the lack of body diode. Moreover, the V TH of a GaN transistor ...

If the transistor has an active partner to take over reverse-conduction, then reducing dead-time, when the transistor has to reverse-conduct, will help maintain efficiency, pointed out Infineon, and ...

Many functional blocks have a basic double-diffused three-layer n-p-n or p-n-p structure to permit the incorporation of transistors. If diodes are also to be incorporated in the block, it is often ...

Unlike conventional GaN transistors, CoolGaN G5 reduces reverse conduction losses. Integrated Schottky diode lowers conduction losses during third-quadrant operation. Enhanced compatibility with ...

Infineon Technologies AG has released the world's first GaN power transistors with integrated Schottky diode for industrial use. The product family of medium-voltage CoolGaN Transistors G5 with ...
