In the example above, Tc = 23.81 degrees C, V_ad which is the output of the HIH-4000 sensor is 3.17 VDC and the supply voltage V_dd is 5.03 VDC. The relative humidity may then be calculated as; Note that the RH #166 Sender Unit is powered (+5 VDC and GRD) by the master unit; TM #128, IOM #135E, IOM #136 or IOM #142A.
A germanium diode is a diode made using the element Germanium in stead of Silicon (Silicium). While both perform the same function (they only let current pass through them in one direction) there are some differences between the silicon and german...
A semiconductor diode, the most common type today, is a crystalline piece of semiconductor material with a pân junction connected to two electrical terminals.A vacuum tube diode has two electrodes, a plate (anode) and a heated cathode. Semiconductor diodes were the first semiconductor electronic devices.he most common function of a diode is to allow an electric current to pass in one direction (called the diode's forward direction), while blocking current in the opposite direction (the reverse direction). Thus, the diode can be viewed as an electronic version of a check valve.
