Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the role of a diode in a circuit?
  • Step 1: Understand that a diode is a small electronic component.
  • Step 2: Know that diodes have two terminals: an anode (positive side) and a cathode (negative side).
  • Step 3: Learn that diodes allow electric current to flow easily from the anode to the cathode.
  • Step 4: Recognize that diodes block current from flowing in the opposite direction, from cathode to anode.
  • Step 5: Realize that this property makes diodes useful for converting alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), which is called rectification.
