Talk:Negative differential resistance

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I nominate this page for deletion[edit]

We have negative impedance and negative differential resistance (why not negative common mode resistance?) and negative resistance pages. All that is needed is one or two paragraphs describing negative resistance.Zen-in (talk) 06:32, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The content on this page is confusing and redundant[edit]

Negative differential Resistance is redundant terminology. When one considers the incremental resistance of a non-linear device it is obvious that the measurement is made in a finite region. So Negative differential resistance means the same thing as negative resistance. It's like calling an "alarm clock" an "alarm clock time-keeper". Zen-in (talk) 01:14, 16 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Redirected to Negative Resistance[edit]

In Electrical Engineering the term differential refers to a pair of terminals that have signals that are centered about 0 Volts. This page previously was redirected to Negative Resistance. That was correct because passive components are not considered to be differential. Later content was placed on this page which is not appropriate for an encyclopedia and was technically wrong. For those reasons the earlier re-direct of this page to negative resistance has been restored.Zen-in (talk) 01:27, 17 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Unnecessary[edit]

This article needs to be incorporated into negative resistance and this one redirected/deleted. -Roger (talk) 04:12, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I say leave it[edit]

This article contains info that is not on the negative resistance page and a slightly-different orientation. Also, IIRC, negative differential resistance is a term of art in the field of amorphous semiconductors. Pproctor (talk) 04:03, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

amorphous semiconductors have given us low cost solar panels; nothing more. I don't see how this page is relevant. It should be deleted. Zen-in (talk) 03:40, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Little People[edit]

What's with all the little people everywhere? 89.243.235.178 (talk) 14:28, 13 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect[edit]

I've redirected this to Negative resistance once again. This article was not describing anything different or new; it's the same concept under a different name. If any particular details are now missing, please integrate them into the destination article rather than recreating this one. Oli Filth(talk|contribs) 23:11, 28 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
