After watching your video I couldn't help but muse over decades of "Academia" looking down their pompous snorkels at the mere mention of ANY information garnered from the internet. I'm long retired now but back in my early years I was owner / operator of a Land Mobile Radio / Marine Electronics shop. Back in those days we actually did component level diagnostics and replacement. Four evenings a week I was teaching an Industrial Electronics course for the Florida's adult ed program. A stick of chalk and a blackboard were the tools of the day. It's from that perspective that I can unequivocally state that your entire presentation is nothing short of superb! Absolutely every aspect of your presentation is STELLAR! Video, content structure and above all ... content depth & accuracy worthy of any institute of higher learning.
Hey, I subscribed!!!
Chris S.
Thank you 😊
Thumbs up for an excellent use of the Predator thermal vision sound effect.
Caught that, pretty cool.
Sweet
I noticed that too, Great, LOL
He also referenced a scene in the movie when he said that the schottky was on steroids and the silicon diode was "pushing pencils." That was Arnold's line to Dillon when they were arm wrestling.
Instant thumbs up.
The concise, informative and TO THE POINT nature of your videos is something that a lot of other UA-cam contributors could learn from. Two thumbs up. Okay at least one for sure.
Hey - I never realized that you included a reference to my switching time video in here! Thanks!
You are a large part of a very small group of top notch electronics videos. :)
You are one of the best teachers ever.Even though it is not in my primary language I could always understand you videos and humor very clearly.I know that making these videos must take a lot of time especially at this quality.so Thank you!
great video!! thanks.
saludos
wow, no me esperaba verte por aca
Great video with oscilloscope waveforms and detailed explanations covering the relevant minute points. Thank you for all the practical demonstrations. Good knowledge for an electronics engineer.
Please cover popular ICs, diacs, triacs and other lesser used components
Excellent tutorial!
Sweat! This was an excellent video covering the basics of Schottky diodes. This will be a big help with many of my beginning electronics students.
Applied Science ì+i
This is an outstanding tutorial and without exception the best explanation of the schottky diode I have heard in both my personal and professional experience. Job well done.
I enjoy the way you demonstrate in a no nonsense way these differences. I did not realize there were the differences between a normal diode and a shottky. Thank you again for your information.
Wish I knew of these videos back in college. Great job explaining and showing!
Thanks for the reference to my TRR video! Nice job as always!
Great tutorial, particularly the end. I always love to watch the magic smoke escape...
Need a tune for this. Got it! Change 'Who Let The dogs out' to 'Who let the smoke out'. I'm sure someone else already alluded to this but I don't care. It's still funny to me. You know how enginerds are...
That poor diode at the end. You took its magic smoke away. They can't work without their magic smoke, and once it comes out, you can't get it back in.
I like you
:-(
This is such a great video, but the DiodeGoneWild guy would probably go wild if he saw that poor little diode burning at the end... ha-ha

😢
Diode die-oh!.......'lectro come an me diode done gone....😖
Afrotechmods consistently boils down the essential points to make it vastly easier for a beginner to understand what is going on.
Thanks for taking time to give us this video.
Only thing missing was the sparks. You had the smoke.
Probably the best video to date I've seen clearly describing the difference between a diode and a schottky diode - in just 6 minutes!
For a beginner your tutorials are gold, keep it up!
I bought a bunch of stuff from Amazon on your behalf the other day. Keep up these great videos! Looking forward to the zener video.
Jeremy Makes Stuff Thanks! :D
Thank you. It is a refresher course me. After many years it takes me back to my younger years. Excellent and precise explanation.
Very informative. I have been using diodes for years and only knew about the switching speed, never realized the other aspect of voltaqge drop (I still try to use Germanium diode when I find them for the smallest voltage drop)... Thanks again for a very clear description of pro's and con's.
Hi, I trained as a telecommunications tech way back in the late 70's. I have lived decades thinking I knew all about this stuff, but haven't been actually building circuits or anything even like that. (I've been dealing with more & more optical fibre technology lately) I found this video re-educational and a useful reminder that pigeonholed old knowledge is vague and unreliable. Thanks!
Well done. Excellent speech, audio, and presentation. Thank you.
Everyone says or writes about the fast switching without any examples. Seeing it first time in your video made sense instantly :)
Nice. Been having some issues with the Schottky blocking diodes in my solar panels. I use a Fluke 117 multimeter in "diode checker" mode and found it to be really good at checking diodes pulled out of a solar panel. Thanks for making this video...it helped. Badass Predator music insert with that thermo imaging clip!
Informative refresher. Thanks
Love how you fried the diode for a close. A man after my own heart.
I work in an electronics store and had to use this video to learn more about Schottkys, thank you!
You are a great teacher! Thank you
Glad to see you're still a fan of Arnold.
Quick, concise and practical. Very well explained :)
Love the oscilloscope, really put everything together!
Thanks sooo much. I was aways wandering what they are. All the other videos I saw on the concept were confusing, thanks so much again!
You are like the Khan Academy of electronics, but much better!!!😀
I studied electronics many moons ago but for some reason Schottky diodes were never covered in the course. Not a problem with this excellent tutorial 👍
Sweat! This was an excellent video covering the basics of Schottky diodes. This will be a big help with many of my beginning electronics students.
Love your videos. Really usefull information. Can´t await the next videos comming up.
I have schottky diodes but had no idea what the difference was. Nice clear explanation, thanks!
SED, Smoke Emitting Diode
nitehawk86 well sign me for the new electronic smoke signal emitter.
Now i just need to figure out how to demodulate it :(
He let out the magic smoke lol its like a genie do I get 3 wishes
nitehawk86 That was ordinary grey smoke. I once saw a high voltage capacitor die and give off pink smoke.
Laharl Krichevskoy Red Indians have used them for centuries. They would stand on mountaintops and look out for wagon trains or US cavalry and inform the rest of the tribe by typing the message into their communicator and pressing send. The communicator would then encode the message and transmit it by sending current pulses through the SED array.

Such a concise and efficient explanation! Thank you!
The predator references and sound effects are most definitely appreciated :).
Def nice touch!
This was very informative and well presented. thank you my friend and have a great day.
Brilliant. These videos are perfect for beginners in electronics.
You make things very easy to understand. Way better as expensive books in my own language!
So thank you very much for all those vids. :)
As always, GREAT videos. Thanks for the Schottky tutorial...
Excellent yet simple description. CHEERS!
Awesome video man! The predator soundtrack for the thermal image killed it!
i loved the predator thermal vision sound effect, oh and you video was also very educating, academic grade.
simple, interesting and educative all in one ! keep up the good work :)
this is best tutororial on youtube i finaly know why is schottky diode deferent than regular diode
first time watching any of your videos, subbed because you obviously deserve more subs
Very clear talking .Very Good Teaching .
Thank you, just what I needed for my class :)
Whoah, this video takes me back to my early days in amateur radio, figuring out diode mixers for UHF / microwave freqs. At one time you could buy these at a local Radio Shack.
Liked and subscribed. Great to see a clear, to the point video on electronics
Excellent presentation. Our fellow technicians used to say that the magic smoke came out of the I.C.'s, Transistors or diodes. LOL.
I wish all electronics videos were this well tutored
Keep the good information flowing.
Perfect 👌
I loved the predator background in the temperature cam 😃
Great explanation and vivid video demo. Thanks a lot!
very good, simple and explanatory - good job !
Excellent tutorial! Thanks!
Very nice tutorial, it helps me really a lot. Thanks much!
great video with great illustrations.
Ahhh ... the magic smoke escaping !
Keep up the good work !
It's so good to have you back Afro. I was beginning to wonder if the CIA had you pushing too many pencils.
Great job, thanks for taking time to share this info.
Please make videos more often I really enjoy ur work keep it up :)
First time here, already subscribed! Great content!
You're awesome. Keep making more videos like this.
Nice sound effects, great video.
Thank you, most enlightening. I do software but am keen to learn more about electronics.
Love the Predator heat vision effect :D
Helpful and well, well done. Congrats buddy.
Very nice Video. It's all about quality, not quantity.
Marcus Wiedner I agree very much. :)
Marcus Wiedner It was about diodes.
It took me longer than I want to admit the Predator heat vision sound effect. Great touch.
+1 for the predator SFX!
took me a second to get it lolz
Thanks for making this video.
Have a nice day.
On half way of video, i was like, well why do silicone diode even exist? and then you explains it. Great video, helps me a lot thanks. subbed.
Saiful Raznan There exist old fashioned germanium diodes as well. Advantage: they have a lower Vf plus a more straight rectifying curve, making them ideal in radio detection circuits. On the other hand, they cannot handle load very well, so these are rubbish in power supply applications.
Excellent video
Very precise and well explained. Thanks
Great job!
I use schottky diodes as ring modulator. they work perfectly.
cheers from Indonesia
informative and short ... this is what I'm looking for !!
It is goog view about schottky diod. I was also searching for varicap diode, but couldn't found in your videos.
love the melt down at the end, thanx.
Maan I've seen this at school it was so complicated but when I look this video its a lot more easy to understand
Technocrawl N4 Exactly, if more teachers were like him, the world would advance faster.
A great video,perfectly explained thanks
This is an awesome video, two thumbs up!
Chotchkie's diodes have to have at least 15 pieces of flair to function properly
Very well documented Excellent job!
Very well done short video. Thanx!
Afrotechmod 4 president.
At the end the otherwise..... was awesome!
You are so good AND interesting and informative.
Excellent video!
Thank you for the video, it explained everything very well !
You are Great Sir.....what a video sir.
Great video and explanation! thanks, much appreciated.
Haha, awesome. I had thoughts and questions along the way and you rectified them all and along the way. Haha.
Well-done, excellent explanation
this is a freaking good explanation
