Fig. 1. Typical diode full-wave bridge. Full-wave diode bridges are found in many electronic systems (Fig. 1). At typical AC power line voltages, the drop across the diodes has little impact on the ...

When looking across the discrete components in your electronic armory, it is easy to overlook the humble diode. After all, one can be forgiven for the conclusion that the everyday version of this ...

Abstract: Diode-bridge type capacitance detection circuit was developed in order to detect very small variation of differential capacitances in higher resolution. The circuit was designed for a comb ...

Front end topology and some tips to design a mixed bridge circuit that effectively protects the design from an overvoltage. A robust solution using a new SCR generation and front end topologies that ...

Abstract: In this paper, we present a Si Schottky diode sampling bridge circuit for demultiplexer using flip-chip technology on alumina substrate(Al/sub 2/O/sub 3/). A Si Schottky diode is modeled ...

The LT4321, an ideal diode bridge controller, replaces two diode bridge rectifiers with low-loss N-channel MOSFET bridges to increase the available power and reduce heat dissipation in a Power over ...

Everyone loves a full-wave bridge rectifier, but there’s no denying that they aren’t 100% efficient due to the diode voltage drop. Which isn’t to say that with some effort we cannot create an ideal ...
