Electronic Basics #31: Schottky Diode & Zener Diode Gage: I've got a 2 year degree in electronics but even then the instructors never talked directly about the overall design of electronics circuits in a more broad sense. I'd like to hear an electronics engineer talk about electronics in a very general way. Start with the common components and what their function is in a circuit in layman's terms. You know, say Here is a such and such circuit and it contains a transistor and a resistor and a IC chip, and here is the function of each of those components in that circuit. And build from there. Describe the components and their uses. Take a beginner and start big and drill down to finer and finer detail. The student should start out with the big picture, and then take the students into as much minutia as they can handle. Those who aren't interested will drift away and those who ARE interested will stay with you all the way to the atomic level. Start at the big picture. not at the atomic level. You lose too many potential students by starting with the mind numbing minutia at the atomic level. It is one thing to understand electronics. It is an entirely other thing to be able to teach it to others. Teaching is a fine art.

Thank you very much! I learn a lot from Electronic Basics, you are a great teacher! But how can i make a difference between Schottky and a normal diode? I'm (trying) to make a PWM motor controller which have 2 Schottky diodes in it. I get most of the components from other PCBs but i don't know which one is that.

The zener is Clipping of those voltage above 15v in your example, because it will force a larger current to Flow since it becomes conductive. This then ends in a voltage drop across the resistor in Front of the zener. is that how it works?

Could you really used electret condenser microphone to harvest acoust to electrical energy enough to power cellphones or Leds?
I read a paper being published. Was it really true?

Hello, I really like Great Scott, I just noticed that the direction of the voltage Vf, (which shown at 1: 35 minutes in the video, is reversed in the diode design. Sincere friendships.

Talk about the tunnel diode. I'm old enough to remember it use to be in every oscilloscope located in the trigger circuit. The main problem with them was the short life span.

Sir I have a motor attached to my cycles wheel which produces around 22v and I have to charge my battery of 15v 8a so should I do put a diode if yes pls tell me the value
reply

Ignoring the resulting voltage drop of over 1 volt could the disadvantages of a schotty diode be negated with a standard silicon diode in series?
reply

It confused the schmeckles out of me when you use the current direction to what were used to instead of the path the electrons take lol
reply

no matter how often i use em, every time i need a diode i have to look up polarity.
damn i hate this conventional vs real current.
