To drive LED, the voltage converter LED driver modifies the power supply to a certain voltage current. In general, the LED driver’s input includes high voltage power frequency AC (i.e., city electricity), low voltage DC, high voltage DC, low voltage and high-frequency AC (such as the output of the electronic transformer). The LED driver power […]

What is Scaling of MOSFET, Scaling Factor, and Types of Scaling
Scaling of MOSFET means, the Reduction of scales from something, Hey! Friends let us first understand what is the basic idea behind the scaling of MOSFET? Scaling is one of the best ways to increase the performance of the Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MOSFET). In scaling we reduced some critical parameters of the […]
MOSFET VI Characteristics, Symbol and it’s Classification
MOSFET Full Form is Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor. Here we will be discussing MOSFET VI Characteristics, symbol and its classification. They are broadly classified into two types namely enhancement Type and depletion type MOSFET. In an enhancement type MOSFET channel has to be induced for the device to conduct, which is achieved by […]
Gunn Diode Working Principle VI Characteristics & Applications
Gunn diode operates on the Gunn effect which is named after its inventor J.B. Gunn. He discovered the periodic variation of current in a GaAs (gallium arsenide) rod in 1963. The microwave device that operates on the principle of transfer of electrons is called as Gunn diode. This is one of the diodes used as […]
IGBT Full Form, Symbol, Construction, Working and Applications
An Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor in short IGBT is a three-terminal semiconductor device it is a hybrid of MOSFET and BJT for high efficiency and fast switching. The power BJT has the advantage of low on state power dissipation, but it cannot be switched at faster rates due to longer turn-off time, whereas MOSFETs have […]
TRIAC Full Form, Symbol, Working, VI Characteristic & Application
The full form of TRIAC is Triode for Alternating Current. Let’s discuss working of Triac with vi characteristics and Applications. A Triac is a bidirectional device it allows current to flow in both the directions. It is also known as a bidirectional triode thyristor or bilateral triode thyristor. In the SCR family, after the SCR, […]
