The relay enters the set-state. When the voltage is negative, diode D1 blocks the current flow through the set-coil and diode D2 energizes the reset-coil. The latched relay in Figure 1 has two ...

When the integrated circuit was invented in 1958, it eclipsed the four-layer diode's capabilities and any market for the diode quickly dried up. Four-layered semiconductors are, however, used today.

Diodes, one-way current conductors, are used for voltage regulation, AC/DC conversion, and circuit protection. Forward-biased at 0.6V, conduct current, reverse bias blocks it.

When you apply incorrect reversed polarity, diode D 1 becomes forward-biased, turning on the relay (Figure 4).Turning on the relay cuts the power supply to the end circuit, and red LED D 3 turns on, ...
