Can a 15uf capacitor replace a 7.5uf?

The answer to this question depends on the application. Generally no - manufacturers of devices design the components precisely, and if they've used a 35uf cap, they've probably done it for a reason. In an audio application the change of a capacitor value will give you a different tonal quality compared to the 35uF cap, though this isn't always a bad thing, though I wouldn't recommend changing it unless you're sure of the effect on the signal. In a power supply application, the capacitors are used to limit something known as ripple current. In this application the higher the capacitor value the lower the ripple current, which is something that is usually a good thing. If you want a more detailed answer i'd need to know more about the circuit you are working on.

What is LED?

An LED is a Light Emitting Diode. It is a semiconductor device designed to produce a certain type, wavelength, etc. of light.

As opposed to an LCD which is a Liquid Crystal Display, does not emit light of any real intensity, although excitation methods have been developed for use in TV's, cellphones, etc. More common now than LED's. The major difference is that LED's have to have power all the time to emit. LCD's just need power to change. So, they are more energy efficient.

What is breakdown mechanism in the semiconductor diode?

a conductor which doped interncily i.e doped externaly is semiconductor

m=multipulfactors

v=applied revese voltage

vbd=break down reverse voltage

n= emperical constant

n=4 for n-type si

n=2 forp-type si

What are the types of analog signal?

An Analog Signal is a continuous signal, just like an electric current that flows through the copper cables when your electrical appliances are turned on. This continuous signal represents physical measurements. An example of this would be with an analog audio signal, the voltage amount of the signal changes continuously with the change in sound waves. Analog Signals are normally represented as electrical signals, but there is also Classical Mechanics, Pneumatics, and Hydraulics technique's that can be used in analog signals.

Difference between tunnel diode and PN junction diode?

there is difference between doping levels.In normal PN junction diode we add 1 impurity for 108 atoms where as in tunnel diode we add 1 impurity for 103 atoms.there is a probability that electrons may penetrate through barrier.So will not disappear

in tunnel diode we get maximum current before barrier disappear where as we get maximum current after break down(there is no barrier)

this effect lies within a certain voltage limit of 0.4V.

When we consider the energy band structure in case of PN junction diode the fermi level lies inside the forbidden energy gap.In case of tunnel diode,the fermi level lies outside the forbidden energy band.

In tunnel diode, there is a topic about negative resistance region where as we cannot discuss it in PN junction diode.

ur friend,

uma.

What is the highest band gap value for semiconductors?

Fairly certain Beryllium Oxide is an extrinsic semiconductor with band gap 10.6 eV.

Otherwise the answer is Boron Nitride (6.36 eV)

What are the similarities and differences between direct current and alternating current?

Both alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) describe the nature of the current in terms of its direction. DC describes when the flow of electric charge goes in a constant direction whereas AC describes when the flow of electric charge constantly reverses; in other words, the electrodes of the power source constantly switch between positive and negative.

Is glass or metal a better conductor?

Glass has a higher conductivity than thin plastic but,it is still lower than metal so metal may be a better conductor

What has the ability to destroy entire cities and impair electronics?

A large enough body from space (comet, asteroid, meteor) that did not break up when coming through the Earth's atmosphere; a large sun flare or coronal blast; and a nuclear weapon detonation all have the ability to destroy entire cities and impair electronic communication systems.

What will happen if emitter base is reversed bias and collector base is forward bias?

If emitter-base is reverse biased then there will be no amplification effect on collector-emitter. If collector-base is forward biased, it will act like a diode, but without emitter-base current, that is meaningless.

What happens when resistance is varied in a circuit?

A resistor will not change its value, unless the voltage exceeds the designed power capacity of the resistor. As the voltage increases, the current will increase, if the current gets too high it will cause the temperature of the resistor to increase, if the temperature exceeds the power rating of the resistor then the resistance WILL change. If it goes too High in temperature the resistor will open and current will no longer flow. A resistor is used to control current, and indirectly the .voltage depending on the application. Hope This helps. You must use Ohms Law to see the relationship.

Define current gain of a common emitter configuration?

The voltage gain of a common emitter transitor amplifier is (inverted) collector resistor divided by emitter resistor, unless this would exceed hfe or the transistor is operating in non-linear mode.

What are the different types of splices for optical fibers?

1. Fusion splices: Use an arc to melt and connect two fibers.

2. Connectorised splices: Use various types of connectors like BNC, ST, etc. These can either be straight- or diagonal-cut fibers.

3. Epoxy splices: Here fibers are joined with the help of refractive index matching glue and guiding sleeves or jackets.

What is Ohm's law in a direct circuit?

Ohm's Law is a law of constant proportionality, and only applies to circuits in which the ratio of voltage to current is a constant over variations in applied voltage. Such circuits are called linear or ohmic circuits, and include most metals. However, in the case of metals such as tungsten, for electronic devices such as diodes, and for electrolytes, Ohm's Law does NOT apply, and we call such circuits 'non-linear' or 'non-ohmic'. For linear circuits, Ohm's Law simply states that the current flowing through that circuit is directly proportional to the voltage applied across its ends. The equation R = V/I is not, as many think, derived from Ohm's Law, but from the definition of the ohm.

Why does garage door remote close but not open garage door?

If the garage door opener worked ok the last time you used it, maybe the battery inside the remote has just gone flat and needs to be replaced? <><><> Also, make sure the two are compatible. If either one is new, you have to make sure they code the same (dip switch or rolling) and that they transmit on the same frequency. If they are not compatible, think about replacing the remote as changing the opener is much harder. Just figure out the two things mentioned earlier for your opener and find a remote that matches those. For further advice see web sites such as the Related Link below.

The voltage for 4 bulbs in a circuit?

The circuit voltage or the resistance of the individual bulb is needed to answer this question.

Divide the total power (400 W) by the supply voltage.

Why can silcon be used in computer circuits?

Atomic number of silicon is 14. So the electronic configuration is 2,8,4. So there are 4 electrons in outermost orbit. So to complete the octet, it has to get 4 electrons causing much electro negativity or to give 4 electrons causing much electro positivity. So it is reluctant to give electrons unless larger force is applied. So for the same reason carbon and germanium having 4 electrons in outer orbit are semiconductors of electricity. So when we add trivalent impurity (like aluminium ) to silicon it promote electrical conductivity and if we add pentavalent impurity ( like phosphorus) we get flow of electricity from trivalent plus silicon to pentavalent plus silicon. This is the basic principle used in electronics.

What is the advantage of triode?

With a diode tube you have no control over the current flow and it can only be used as a rectifier, where the triode consist of a control grid, to control the flow of electrons that will reach the anode, this make it possible to use the triode as a amplifier, compared to a transistor the control grid have the same function as the base of the transistor.

Advantages?

Over tetrodes and pentodes:

1. Operation at higher radio frequencies,

2. Lower noise figures,

3. Simpler circuitry and only one power supply.

What does a thermister do in a circuit?

A Thermistor Is essentially a variable resistor. The resistance of the thermistor changes with temperature. They're often used to regulate heating elements - like those found in cookers.

Two resistors are connected in a series how does the current through the second resistor compare to the current through the first resistor?

Let us look at a black box with two external terminals and the black box is composed of only passive elements.

Conservation of charge means that what goes in one terminal has to exit the other terminal, or else electrical charge will accumulate or deplete inside the black box.

Current is just charge per unit time. Current going in one terminal has to exit without loss the other terminal.

Resistors are passive element. In this situation, we have two black boxes, each is composed of one resistor. What goes in = what comes out --> the current is the same in both resistors.
