Frequently Asked Questions
What is direct current?
Direct current (DC) is an electric current that flows in one direction only. DC is the kind of current produced by batteries, fuel cells, and solar panels. Read more..
What is a generator?
generators transform mechanical energy into electrical energy. The mechanism involved is similar to that of an alternator.. Read more..
How do rectifiers work?
Rectifiers work by allowing only half of the AC cycle to pass through them. During the positive half-cycle, the rectifier allows electrons to flow from the negative terminal to the positive terminal. Read more..
What is a diode?
Diodes are semiconductor devices that allow current to flow in only one direction, making them useful for a variety of applications such as rectification, voltage regulation, and signal modulation. Read more..
