COMPONENTS

Componets

The Diode The most common type of diode is a ‘silicon diode.’ It is enclosed in a glass cylinder with the dark band marking the cathode terminal. This line points towards the positive of a circuit. The opposite terminal is called the anode. Generally, diodes do not conduct until the voltage reaches approximately .6 volts, this is called the ‘threshold point’. If the current becomes too high the diode may crack or melt.

The Diode TYPICAL USES OF DIODES REVERSE POLARITY PROTECTOR     The diode in this circuit protects a radio or a recorder etc... In the event that the battery or power source is connected the wrong way round, the diode does not allow current to flow. Electronic devices can be damaged or even destroyed if the polarity is reversed (positive and negative are connected to the wrong terminals).     TRANSIENT PROTECTOR When an ‘inductor’ device such as a relay is turned off a high voltage can be generated for a short time (Dia 1). This voltage ‘spike’ can damage the relay and other components. However, the diode does not allow current to pass through it in the wrong direction and short circuits this spike. The diode can also be used to protect a ‘meter’ from a reverse current (Dia 2).   ZENER DIODES    Normally a current does not flow through a diode in the reverse direction. The Zener Diode is specifically designed to begin conducting in the opposite direction when the reverse voltage reaches a voltage threshold. Zener diodes are sometimes used as a voltage sensitive switch.

Capacitor HOW A CAPACITOR WORKS When the circuit is switched on, the LED emits light and the capacitor charges up. When the switch is turned off the LED stills emits a light for a few seconds because the electricity stored in the capacitor is slowly discharged. When it has fully discharged it's electricity the LED no longer emits light. If a resistor is introduced to the circuit the capacitor charges up more slowly but also discharges more slowly. What will happen to the light ?

Capacitor Electrolytic capacitors are ‘polarised’ which means they have a positive and negative lead and must be positioned in a circuit the right way round (the positive lead must go to the positive side of the circuit).  They also have a much higher capacitance than non-electrolytic capacitors. Non-electrolytic capacitors usually have a lower capacitance. They are not polarised (do not have a positive and negative lead) and can be placed anyway round in a circuit. They are normally used to smooth a current in a circuit. CAPACITANCE - means the value of a capacitor

Resistors Resistors determine the flow of current in an electrical circuit. Where there is high resistance in a circuit the flow of current is small, where the resistance is low the flow of current is large. Resistance, voltage and current are connected in an electrical circuit by Ohm’s Law.
