A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Semiconductor diodes

Semiconductor diodes are PN‑junction devices that allow current to flow mainly in one direction. Mastering their structure, I‑V characteristic, and key operating regimes (forward bias, reverse bias, breakdown) is essential for solving exam problems on rectification, switching, and temperature effects.
