Lumped systems are those systems in which electrical

properties like R, L, C etc are assumed to be located on a

small space of the circuit. these systems are applicable

for low frequency application.

On the other hand Distributed systems assume that

electrical properties R, L, C etc are distributed across

the entire circuit. these systems are applicable to for high

(microwave)

frequency application.

Unlike the lumped element model, it assumes non-uniform

current along each branch and non-uniform voltage along

each node.

What is the difference between pi model and tee model?

For medium length lines the shunt capacitance is uniformly distributed along the length of transmission line.. For simplicity in the calculations, Now in T method the tolal line capacitance is lumped or concentrated at the mid point of the line.While in Pie method the capacitance is divided into two halves whith one half lumped near sending end and other half near the receiving end,The capacitor near the sending end does not contribute any line voltage drop but it should be added with line current to get lotal sending end current.


How the section of a transmission line can be used as lumped circuit element?

Actually in networks we will consider the elements like resistance, inductance, capacitance as lumped elements for simplicity, like this in power systems we will consider the transmission line parameters(resistance, inductance, capacitance) as lumped elements, because we will calculate all the parameters of power systems with respect to receiving end or sending end but not with respect to middle of the line. If a fault occurs on transmission line then we should not consider the lumped elements of that total transmission line, we should consider the lumped elements from sending end to the point where the fault is occurred.


What are the different parasitic capacitances of NMOS transistors?

Parasitic capacitances form across every depletion region there's also a capacitance between the conductive leads to the terminals. For simplicity they are usually just lumped to each of the terminals of the transistor. Gate, Drain, Source and Substrate. If substrate is shorted to source creating typical 3 terminal representation then that half of those parasitic capacitances combine and Css (source-substrate) = 0. Cgd Cgs Cds (primarily from drain to substrate, not drain to source)


Is the real world load purely series parallel or series parallel type?

This question does not make any sense. "Real world" load, from the perspective of the power producing generator, can be reduced to a lumped resistance in series with a reactive component (either inductive or capacitive). In reality, the load connected to that generator has series elements and parallel elements.


What determines the actual magnitude and direction of current through voltage source?

The voltage itself will determine the direction of current (assuming there isn't another source pushing current through the source backwards); the amount of current will be determined by the thevenin equivalent resistance of the circuit connected to that source (the resistance "seen" by the source, which can be lumped into a single circuit element).

What is the difference between lumped element and distributed element resonators?

The difference is that in a lumped element resonator, the circuit's elements are localized together. In a distributed element resonator, they are spread apart.


What is difference between lumped and distributed elements?

What is mean by lumped element in electronics?

lumped" means that the dimension of you ckt element is much smaller than the wavelength of the signal passing through it. Therefore, you can treat your ckt element as a lumped unit (against the wavelength), and do not have to worry about wave propagation phenomenon "within" your ckt element. The opposite of "lumped element" is "distributed network." Typically, in low-frequency ckt/network, since the frequency is low, therefore, the wavelength is large (wavelength = propagation speed(usu. speed of light) / frequency ), so most elements can be treated as lumped. However, as frequency goes higher and higher, the wavelength becomes shorted and shorter, the wave propagation effect WITHIN the ckt element becomes more and more pronounced.
