What Are Current, Resistance and Voltage?
Voltage, current, and resistance are three properties that are fundamental to almost everything you will do in electrical and electronics engineering. They are intimately related. In this article, we used water in a river analogy to explain what are current, resistance and voltage. This method will help the beginners to imagine and understand these fundamentals much … [Read more...] about What Are Current, Resistance and Voltage?
How Multicolor (Red Green Yellow) LEDs Work?
A LED that emits one color when forward biased and another color when reverse biased is called a multicolor LED.Related Article: Working of Light Emitting Diode (LED)One commonly used schematic symbol for these LEDs is shown below.Working of Multicolor LEDsMulticolor LEDs actually contain two pn junctions that are connected in reverse-parallel i.e. they are in parallel … [Read more...] about How Multicolor (Red Green Yellow) LEDs Work?
Working of Light Emitting Diode (LED)
A light-emitting diode (LED) is a diode that gives off visible light when forward biased. Light-emitting diodes are not made from silicon or germanium but are made by using elements like gallium, phosphorus and arsenic. By varying the quantities of these elements, it is possible to produce light of different wavelengths with colors that include red, green, yellow and … [Read more...] about Working of Light Emitting Diode (LED)
