To illustrate a basic diode switch, we’ve prepared a couple of simplified circuit diagrams. The first shows the anode tied to ground through R1 and the cathode tied to the Vcc power rail.

A laser diode is changing LiDAR technology, offering precision in distance measurement and spatial recognition. Read more!

You know just what to do. The ground pin of a LM7805 connects to the cathode of a TL431 programmable Zener diode pulled from an old scrapped TV. The diode is referenced to a voltage divider ...

ROHM Semiconductor today announced a new high output laser diode - RLD8BQAB3 - for use in ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) equipped with LiDAR for distance measurement and spatial recognition ...

ROHM has developed a high-output laser diode – RLD8BQAB3 – for use in ADAS equipped with LiDAR for distance measurement and spatial recognition. It will initially start supplying samples targeting ...
