Let's learn more about the second important breakdown effect in zener diodes: the avalanche breakdown.
The zener effect is the dominant breakdown effect in low voltage zener diodes. Let's take some time to learn more about it.
Let's look at the foundation for transistors, diodes and many other semiconductor components: the p-n junction.
A world without semiconductor components has become unthinkable. But what are they and what makes them that special?
As we are now familiar with resistor combinations, let's take a deeper look into voltage dividers.
We already know how resistance, current and voltage behave for single resistors. But what about more complex resistor combinations?
When talking about resistance, we cannot avoid ohm’s law, which shows the connection between current, voltage and resistance.
Among the components found in circuits, resistors are pretty common. Let's take a look at them and the conductivity of different materials.
Before we start the circuit basics series, let's first take a look at the fundamentals and the history of electricity.
