The symbol is a triangle pointing in the direction that (positive) current is allowed to flow and a wall preventing (positive) current from flowing in the opposite direction: 1: A diode has two modes, "on" and "off". When "on", current flows, and when "off", no current flows. We generally view diodes as either "ideal" or "modeled", as described below. "Ideal" view of a diode + The "ideal" diode is either a short circuit or an open circuit.
