Diodes

The last couple days we've had some exposure to different tools from Mr Parker. This afternoon Fortich gave us an introduction to semi-conductors, starting with Diodes. A diode is in the family of resistors, a sort of 'glorified fuse' - so be sure to be caught up to Chapter 28 by next week.

For a simple explanation on diodes, see this page. Also, what is a semiconductor.

Monday is BBQ/Potluck day!
