wat s the difference between diode and capacitor..

Answer / ch.rajeshkumarreddy

CAPACITOR IS USED ONLY TO STORE THE ELCTRIC CHARGE AND
PASSES WHEN IT REQUIRES.
DIODE IS A SEMICONDUCTORDEVICE IT IS NOT WORKING LIKE AS
CAPACITOR BUT IT CONVERTS AC TO DC AND USED FOR
RECTIFICATION
SO BOTH ARE GOOD BUT IT WORKING STATUS IS DIFFERENT.

wat s the difference between diode and capacitor..

Answer / sathya

Diode is nothing but a rectifier used to convert ac to
dc.But there is no conversion in Capacitor.It is just used
to store the energy.
