ASAP Semiconductor LLC
Diodes is the avalanche diode. This diode conducts in the reverse direction when the reverse bias voltage exceeds the breakdown voltage. Its name comes from the avalanche effect that occurs when the reverse electric field across the P-N junction creates a wave of ionization, similar to an avalanche, leading to a large current. Diodes of this type are designed to break down at a well-defined reverse voltage without being destroyed. The second type of diode, the Light Emitting Diode (LED) is one of the most common...
