PROJECT IN T.L.E Electronic Components Diodes a diode is a two-terminal electronic component with asymmetric conductance‚ it has low (ideally zero) resistance to current flow in one direction‚ and high (ideally infinite) resistance in the other. A semiconductor diode‚ the most common type today‚ is a crystalline piece of semiconductor material with a p–n junction connected to two electrical terminals. A vacuum tube diode has two electrodes‚ a plate (anode)
