DEFINITION

Classification: 327/189

Storage diode (e.g., step recovery, etc.):

(under subclass 188) Subject matter including a two-terminal unidirectionally conductive semiconductor device having minority carriers which accumulate at the pn junction when the diode is forward biased and which are suddenly swept away as back biasing increases to a certain point.
