Conditions under which Technology is used

Arterial Blood Gas (ABG) Analysis

PH and levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood from an artery, bicarbonate, oxygen content and oxygen saturation values. Tests how well your lungs are able to move oxygen into the blood and remove carbon dioxide from blood.

Tests blood drawn from an artery, where the oxygen and carbon dioxide levels can be measured before they enter body tissues.

Pulse Oximeter

An Oximeter monitor displays the percentage of arterial haemoglobin in the oxyhaemoglobin configuration. The oxygen saturation of a patient's blood and changes in blood volume in the skin, producing a photoplethysmograph.

Often attached to a medical monitor so oxygenation can be seen at all times. Most monitors also display heart rate.

Reverse saturation current of silicon is in nano ampear therefore it is prefered over germanium


Reverse saturation current of Ge diode?

Reverse saturation current of germanium diodeThe current that exists under reverse bias conditions is called the reverse saturation current. Reverse saturation current of the germanium diode is typically 1 micro ampere or 10-6 a.At a fixed temperature, the reverse saturation current of a diode increases with increase in applied reverse bias. In reverse bias region the reverse saturation current also varies with the temperature.

What is saturation region in general?

Saturation region is one in which the output current is independent of the input and remains almost constant. Hence, MOSFETs in saturation are modeled as current sources( whose current is independent of voltage across it)


What is Reverse Saturation Current of a diode?

When a diode is operated as reverse bias the current flow is almost completely blocked. A small amount of current is still able to travel in reverse through the diode and this is referred to as the reverse current saturation.


What is meant by reverse saturation current?

reverse saturation current is produced by the thermal activity of the diode materials. This current: 1- Is temprature dependant; that is, it increases as temprature. 2- Accounts fot the major portion of diode reverse current surface leakage current is produced by contamination on the surface of the device, allowing current flow to bypass the junction


What are 2 units for measuring current?

The 2 units for measuring current are: Ampere Milliampere


What is the reason for reverse saturation current?

its simple.reverse saturation current is because of the flow of minority carriers across the junction when the bias is changed suddenly from forward to reverse.this is why it doesnt depend on forward bias


Factors affecting stability of an object?

temparature, collector current, reverse saturation current, beta of atransistor


What is saturation in current in diod?

When a pn junction is reversed bias practically no current flows through it ,but a very small current flows through due to minority charge carriers ,which is known as reverse saturation current .In p type due to electrons and in n type due to holes .


What is Saturation voltage of bjt?

It is the CE (collector - emitter) voltage at a given collector current when the transistor is fully on. Increasing the base current will not lower the CE voltage any more once saturation has been reached.
