Electronics Engineering

Electronics Engineering is a branch of engineering that deals with practical applications of electronic components, devices, systems, or equipment. Electronics are devices that operate on low voltage sources, as in electron tubes, transistors, integrated circuits, and printed circuit boards and use electricity as part of its driving force.

Why LV side is shorted in short circuit test?

Transformer short circuit tests are used to determine the impedances (positive and zero sequence) of the transformer. A simple explanation: to do this one winding is shorted, and voltage is applied to another winding to circulate the normal full load current of the transformer. The impedance of the transformer is the applied voltage divided by the induced current.

If one winding was not shorted, the voltage divided by induced current would not give the impedance of the transformer - the induced current would be much lower, giving a much higher impedance measurement that would be essentially meaningless.

What are the two common materials used as intrinsic semiconductor?

  • silicon
  • germanium
  • boron nitride
  • aluminum phosphide
  • gallium arsenide
  • indium antimonide
  • boron phosphide
  • boron arsenide
  • boron antimonide
  • aluminum nitride
  • aluminum arsenide
  • aluminum antimonide
  • gallium nitride
  • gallium phosphide
  • gallium antimonide
  • indium nitride
  • indium phosphide
  • indium arsenide
  • etc.

There are also other types of semiconductors, like copper oxide, selenium, cadmium sulfide, and lead sulfide. However the properties of these semiconductors are harder to control than those listed above, thus they have few uses in modern electronics.

Carbon in the form of nanotubes or high purity diamond thin films also offers promise as a semiconductor. It should work at much higher temperatures than other semiconductors can, but fabrication problems remain to be solved before it can be used in practical devices.

How to identify a 470 ohm resistor?

Resistors are color coded to denote the value of the resistor as well as the multiplier. In your case a 470 ohm would be colored as Yellow Violet Brown corresponding to 4, 7 and a multiplier of 10^1.

What is the purpose of a résumé?

It describes your education, abilities and previous employment and is usually attached to a job application - to give further information about you. It is your representation of your knowledge and skills that qualify you for employment.

In England a resume is known as a C. V. (Curriculum vitae)

Resumes are scanned in about 15 seconds or less, so you have to make a good first impression. There are different styles of resumes so it's important to make the right choice. The ultimate aim is to receive further consideration for an available position.

What does ic inmedical terms?

"IC" in the world of electronics means "Integrated Circuit"

What is the difference between the inrush current and the fault current?

Magnetizing inrush current has bigger 2nd harmonics compare to short circuit current.

the second harmonics content is about >60% of fundamental harmonic.

magnetizing inrush current happened when we energised the transformer, and short circuit current happened if there is a short circuit between different alive phase.

Why negative voltage is used in BTS in GSM system?

Because 2 terminal comes out from the battery and through red wire we ground the +ive terminal so that possibility of noise interference will get zero....noise occur only in the +ive terminal.....thats why we use -ive voltage.

If the resistance increases what will happen to voltage and current?

If you have a simple circuit. For eg: One voltage source and one resistor, then the voltage of the circuit will always remain the same, the current however will decrease following Ohms' Law V=I*R.

If we have a current source instead of a voltage source, we are forcing the current to be a certain value so if we increase the resistor value the current will remain the same but the voltage will increase.

What logic gate might be called the all or nothing gate?

AND gate is an all or

nothing gate because in able to have an output of logic 1,all of the input must be all logic 1 or else the output will be nothing or simply logic 0.

What types of bulbs used for street lighting?

You may use electronic bulb of any kind in your street. It is entirely depends upon your choice but the main thing you should keep in mind that their light should be of white color like tube light.

Because it will be more difficult to see things in some other color other then the white one.

Why is the power of a light bulb large?

Most light bulbs waste energy as heat. Even LEDs. Large light bulbs require more power.

Why don't we supply to DC to the transformer?

When we give d.c supply to a transformer the primary winding will burn because constent flux will be will be produced which doesnt link with secondary so max current will circulate on primary winding only

Will there be a significant voltage drop over 60 FT if a 6-3 extension cord is used to power a motor home with house current?

no but you cant exceed the wattage of the generator if you are close to that amount you will notice a reduction not nescessarily in voltage but amperage which will have the same affect If the generator is 7500 watts, 240 volts, that is approximately 30 amps maximum load. According to one online calculator for voltage drop, your AWG 8 wire run would have only a 3 percent drop over 95 feet or so, or 120 feet if you're only using 25 amps.

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

What are the Example each for self induced and mutually induced emf?

if an emf is induced in a coil due to the current flowing through itself is called SELF INDUCTANCE.

on the other hand if an emf is induced on another coil due to the current flowing through the previous coil then it is called MUTUAL INDUCTANCE.

suppose there are two coils A and B

a current is flowing through A.

now if the flux produced due to this current induce an emf on the same coil A, then it is SELF INDUCTANCE, and if it produce emf on B, then it is MUTUAL INDUCTANCE due to coil A.

Is ductile iron generally conductive?

Yes, ductile iron is conductive. Its electrical conductivity is similar to that of gray cast iron due to the presence of graphite in its microstructure. This makes it a good choice for applications where electrical conductivity is required.

What is the difference between Transverse Electrical mode and Transverse Electrical Magnetic mode?

Transverse modes are classified into different types:

  • TE modes (Transverse Electric) no electric field in the direction of propagation.
  • TM modes (Transverse Magnetic) no magnetic field in the direction of propagation.
  • TEM modes (Transverse Electromagnetic) no electric nor magnetic field in the direction of propagation.
  • Hybrid modes nonzero electric and magnetic fields in the direction of propagation.

How do electrons flow on an ac source?

With electricity from the mains, the current chages direction 50 times each second, so it is called alternating current.

How can you determine a busted capacitor?

There have been a few errors in recent years with capacitors that go bust from normal use. These are most often leaking electrolytic fluid from a crack at the top or the bottom. This fluid is most often drying up and leaves a dark brownish crystalline compound on and around capacitor.

Some other capacitors are just bulging upwards on top and give no signs apart from this.

A healthy capacitor has got no visual deformities.

If in doubt about a certain capacitor then de-solder it and test it in a multimeter that can measure its capacitance.

Why a capacitor is used with the fan?

mostly because fans use induction motors therefore the starting torque is less,this is provided by the capacitor by increasing the voltage
There are usually two capacitors in a ceiling fan motor. One is the "start" capacitor and the other is the "run" capacitor. Simply put, an AC motor needs a rotating magnetic field in order turn the motor shaft. This is done by applying voltage with different phases to different windings. In a single phase system there is only one voltage phase. The capacitor is used to provide a phase shift in the windings of the motor, making it appear that the motor is operating in a multiphase system.

What is the watt of 2ton ac?

Running 8 hours a day, a two ton air conditioner uses approx 720 kwh/month (which is about 2.4 kilowatts per hour over the month).

The usage decreases with longer operation. See chart at the link I have provided.
