Schottky Diodes – Working, Characteristics, Application
Schottky barrier diodes are semiconductor diodes designed with minimal forward voltage and fast switching speeds which may be as low as 10 ns. These are manufactured in current ranges of 500 mA to 5 amps and up to 40 V. Due to these features they become specifically suitable in low voltage, high frequency applications such […]
How to Connect IC 4066 in a Circuit
In this article, I will try to explain how to connect the input and output pinouts of the bilateral switch IC 4066. We will learn how to correctly configure and use the IC 4066 pinouts in a circuit. The 4066 actually performs the role of an analogue switch. The 4066 is an integrated circuit made […]
