The Anti-Parallel Series Pair Limiter Topology

The Anti-Parallel Series Pair Limiter Topology

The Anti-Parallel Series Pair Limiter Topology The PIN Diode and the Anti-Parallel Configuration The PIN diode itself was invented by Jun-ichi Nishizawa in 19501, just 18 days before R. N. Hall of General Electric. Hall would go on to propose the PIN diode as a rectifier in 19522, and a decade later the anti-parallel PIN...
