Current limiting diodes(CLD) regulate current over a wide voltage range. There are several types of current limiting diodes(CLD). Examples include a current regulator diode, constant current diode, and current limit diodes. Current regulating diodes regulate the current flowing through them to a maximum level and if current exceeds its current regulation point, it drops its voltage. 2, record 3, English, - current%2Dregulator%20diode

In 1992 CLD [Compliance and Laboratory Division] purchased new instrumentation, the Automess, to replace the RATO-F. It has been ascertained that the uncertainties associated with the Automess readings are similar to those of the RATO-F, i. e., a reading of 2. 6 mSv/h is deemed to demonstrate a true reading in excess of 2 mSv/h. 1, record 4, English, - RATO%2DF%20survey%20meter
