- Estimated study time: 30 minutes
Study resources
- Special Purpose Electronic Devices - MRCET notes (PDF) — Covers varactor diode operation alongside tunnel diode, photodiode and SCR - the energy-band style explanation most web tutorials skip.
- Neso Academy - Analog Electronics: Special Semiconductor Diodes (Video) — Playlist lectures covering special-purpose diodes and their I-V characteristics, useful as a lead-in before reading about varactor/tunnel/Schottky diodes.
- Electronics Notes - PN Junction & Special Diode Types (incl. Varactor, Schottky) (Article) — Reference tutorial hub covering the PN junction diode plus links to varactor/varicap, Schottky and other special diode types with their applications.
