Is diode an active or passive device?
An active device is a device that takes input energy to operate. The only energy a diode uses is from the signal applied to it (it has one input, one output, and no other terminals), so it is a passive device. To be an active device, a separate power source must be applied to it - such as the case for operation amplifiers, for example.
Can a microprocessor handle an analog signal?
No. All analogue information must be converted to digital information (binary encoded) before it can be processed.
A comparison of the input force applied to a machine to the output force it must overcome?
Pulley
What is the flow rate for 28mm copper pipe?
To provide an answer to this question the pressure of the fluid applied at the input end of the pipe must be provided.
Explain how int 21h can be used for input output in 8086 microprocessor?
The INT 21H instruction in the 8086 is a software interrupt to vector 21H. In order for it to be used for input/output, the programming that responds to INT 21H must be present. This is part of the Operating System.
In a second class lever why must you exert input force over a greater distance?
If the input force is applied at a greater distance than the length of the effort arm is increased thereby reducing the effort.
What is meant by latching in microprocessors?
It is the time period in the clock cycle in which the signal on the bus must be the valid expected data. ie. The stable period of the data transmission that will then be loaded into the microprocessor as the actual data.
Why is the polarity of capacitors in RC coupled amplifiers such that the negative terminal receives the input signal?
The input signal is assumed to have zero DC bias. Input stages will typically have a positive bias on the base or grid, respectively, of the first stage transistor or tube. So, the input terminal is more negative. ANSWER: The polarity of the capacitor is determined by the bias polarity as used. If the bias is negative then the capacitor negative terminal must be connected to it.
Why programmer must know model of microprocessor before writing?
Because each microprocessor type has its own unique machine code.
Disadvantage of using diode as shunt element in clipper circuit?
In shunt clippers, when the diode is in off condition, transmission of input signal must take place to output. But in the case of high frequency input signals, diode capacitance affects the operation of circuit adversely and the signal gets attenuated (which means that, it passes through diode capacitance to ground).
What is envelope detection?
When an AM signal is received, the receiver must perform a converse process to get the original signal ( Information Signal ) back . This process is known as detection or demodulation, the simplest process which is used widely in AM radios is the Envelop Detector . Envelop Detector is an electronic circuit which is used to recover ( Demodulate ) the original signal in AM systems, its constructed from just one diode, one capacitor and one resistor . This is essentially just a halfwave rectifier which charges a capacitor to a voltage = the peak voltage of the AM signal . However .. the output of the detector follows the envelop of the modulated signal. On the positive cycles of the input signal, the diode conducts and the capacitor charges up to the peak voltage of the input signal. As the input falls below this peak value, the diode is cut off, because the capacitor voltage is greater than the input signal voltage, thus causing the diode to open. The capacitor now discharges through the resistor at slow rate . The discharge process continues until the nest positive half-cycle. When the input signal becomes greater than the output across the capacitor, the diode conducts again and the process is repeated .
Explain if transmit baseband signal directly in a wireless system and why?
An antenna must be the order of magnitude of the, wavelength signal in size to be effective. Using only baseband transmission, FDM could not be applied and (Path loss, penetration of obstacles, reflection, scattering and diffraction. All the effects depend onthe wavelength of a signal.
