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...
Diode is a two terminal device (di-means two). Simply put, it acts as a one-way valve for electrons. Conventional current can flow from the anode to the cathode, but not in the other direction.If an intrinsic semiconductor is doped with a pentavalent or trivalent impurities you get a diode. Selenium diodes work much like any other diode. They allow current to flow in a forward direction and block current from flowing in the opposite direction. They have a h â¦ igher forward bias voltage then silicon and as such generate much more heat then a comparable silicon diode.
