DESCRIPTION:

• The diode is an electronic component with 2 legs, that is to say a dipole, whose peculiarity and main interest is that it only lets current flow in one direction.
• To make it very simple on its usefulness, this very particular feature makes it possible in particular to protect part of an electrical circuit.
• However, the field of application of diodes is wider, and concerns analog and digital electronics as well as electrical engineering.
