How Diodes Control Electricity (Theory vs Real Circuits)

In this video, we explore how diodes work both theoretically and practically through real hands-on experiments! Learn about PN junctions, depletion regions, forward bias, reverse bias, knee voltage, and the key applications and types of diodes.
