Palomino Horse. The Palomino horse is not actually a particular horse breed but a color breed. Only those horses which meet certain specific standards of color coding can be called Palomino horses. The Palomino horse is a characteristic creamy golden tan. Its tail and mane are almost white.
Diode is an unipolar device, i.e. it has a p-type side and a n-type side, and their connection matters. Forward Bias: When the p-type side of the diode is connected to a higher potential than the n-type side, the diode is said to be forward biased, because it enhances the capability of the diode to conduct forward current.
Reverse-bias is when the anode is negative and the cathode is positive. A lot of current flows when the diode is forward-biased, provided that the voltage is higher than 0.6V or so for a silicon diode or 0.3V or so for a germanium device. A very small amount of current flows if a diode is reverse-biased.
