What is the forward biased knee voltage for a 1n4001 silicon diode?
A; The 1N4xxx series of rectifier diodes are specified as 1 amp forward conduction. the last number signify the maxi mun reverse voltage it can sustain without breakdown.
Where gunn diode is used?
Gunn diodes are used in GUNN oscillator over high frequency application. its work on the transfer electron effect TET and the scientist J.B Gunn observe it so the phenomenon is named by gunn effect. the diode are made from GaAs material.because silicon is not suitable low forbidden energy gap 1.21eV only.
Are 1N4001 diodes suitable to be used in this rectifier circuit?
There is insufficient information in the question to properly answer it. Please restate the question.
What sort of diode do you need when putting a solar cell on a battery powered device?
There are two basic types of diodes; Silicon and Germanium. I would use germanium because it has a lower forward bias than silicon. I suspect that what you really want to know is how to hook up an isolation diode. This is a diode that is installed in series with the alternate power source to isolate one from the other. Whether you use germanium or silicon the way that you want to hook it up is pretty straight-forward. go ahead and hook the negative (black) lead of the solar cell to the negative (black) lead of the battery. Hook up the positive (red) lead of the solar cell to the anode of the isolation diode and the cathode end of the diode hooks up to the positive (red) lead of the battery. You can identify the anode and cathode ends of the diode by looking on the diode - you will see a little diagram that looks like an arrow with a straight line at the tip of the arrow. the straight line side is the cathode end. Unless you have a really big solar panel you could probably use a general purpose diode such as a 1N4001 silicon (available at radio-shack)Hope this helped you.
What is the main difference between diode IN4001 and IN4007?
Both are 1.0 AMP SILICON S general purpose ,Low forward voltage drop. High surge current capabilityRECTIFIER.The only difference is in the maximum repetitive reverse voltage which is 1N4001 has a maximum repetitive reverse voltage of 50 V, 1N4007 is 1000V. Otherwise they are the same. There must be a fault in the circuit which caused the burn-out.

What is meant by 'OA' in OA79 and '1N' in 1N4001?
IN IN = 1N: Refers to the number of junctions (1N= 1 junction). O= Germanium, A= rectifier diode, so OA = germanium rectifier diode.
What means 1N4007 diode?
A: 1N400X signify a power rectifier series the last the X define the reverse voltage breakdown sustainable capability A 1N4001 is for example a 50V reverse voltage breakdown A 1N4007 is a 1000V reverse voltage breakdown
What will happen to 1N4001 doide if a reverse voltage of 52 volts is impressed across it?
A: nothing should happen since a 1N4001 is capable to sustain 100v in the reverse direction. 52v is within the 100v reverse breakdown voltage.
Why is the diode 1N4001 so called?
The 1Nxxxx numbering system is an American standard (now adopted globally) used to mark semiconductor devices. The "1N" means that it is a single junction semiconductor device (i.e. a diode). "4001" is a number given to the smallest diode in the 400x series (4001, 4002, and so on) - the number indicates the voltage, current and power ratings of the diode. A transistor (which has 2 junctions) would be numbered 2Nxxxx. 1-single junction semiconductor device N-Silicon device 400-its a particular series whose max allowed current is 1A. x- it denotes the voltage rating. 1-50V,2-100V,3-200V... 7-1000V.
What is 1N4OO1silicon diodes?
It's 1N4001 Maximum reverse voltage 50 volts, 1 amp The last digit indicates the voltage. To replace a 1N4001, you could safely use any of the diodes in that series. 1N4001 = 50 volts 1N4002 = 100 volts 1N4003 = 200 volts 1N4004 = 400 volts 1N4005 = 600 volts 1N4006 = 800 volts 1N4007 = 1000 volts The 1N4000 series diodes are rectifier diodes. They're used for converting AC voltage into DC voltage. And frankly, I can't think of a reason why I'd choose the 1N4001 when the more-versatile (as in you can use it in more places) 1N4003 is the same price.
