A diode is a specialized electronic component with two electrodes called the anode and the cathode. Most diodes are made with semiconductor materials such as silicon, germanium, or selenium. Diodes can be used as rectifiers, signal limiters, voltage regulators, switches, signal modulators, signal mixers, signal demodulators, and oscillators.

A diode is a component of electronic instrumentation that allows current to flow in only one direction at a time and prevents that current from flowing in the opposite direction. A diode is, in part, comprised of two electrodes (an anode and a cathode) that act similarly to miniature semiconductors. The cathode is usually negatively charged in orde...
