Applications of tunnel diode:
- Tunnel diode can be used as a switch, oscillator, and amplifier
- It is used as an ultra-high-speed switch
- It shows a fast response
- It is used as an ultra
- It is used as a high-frequency component
- Tunnel diode acts as a logic memory storage device
- It can be used as FM receiver since it is a low current device it is not used more
- It can be used in modern military equipment
- It can be used as a microwave oscillator at a frequency of about 10 GHz
- It is used in nuclear magnetic resource machine
- It can be used in satellite communication equipment
Practical application of tunnel diode:
- The tunnel diode is mostly used as a relaxation oscillator circuit
- It can be used microwave oscillator, which has the frequency above than 10 GHz
- It can be used as an amplifier
- It is used as a whenever high switching is needed mostly in control system because it has a switching time of the nanoseconds or picoseconds
- It is used in satellite communication types of equipment
- It is used as a memory storage device
- It is used in nuclear magnetic resource machine
- It is also used in the military type of equipment like sonars and radars
- It has a small inductance, capacitance, and also it has negative resistance for that reason it is used in microwave oscillator and relaxation oscillator
