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.

How does a welding transformer work?

A welding transformer uses the alternating current supplied to the welding shop at a high voltage to produce the low voltage welding power

Why practicals are important in engineering?

Practicals are important in engineering to complement the knowledge acquired theoretically. Also our practical knowledge will last longer than the theoretical knowledge. since when we learn something practically, we will know that certain things cannot not be accomplished practically (as in the case of the Carnot engine, which only imaginary and has an efficiency of 100% and no such practical engine exists till now!)

ANS2:A qualifying score on a Practical (Examination) confirms that the engineer has, in fact, learned to process and apply the subject matter.

Utility voltage is 115 volts at a frequency of 60 Hz what is the peak to peak?

A: Take 115 volts and multiply by 2.82. The frequency does not matter but he voltage does

No-load and full load transformer?

A: a transformer will follow the rule of input output ratio with no load. As soon as a load is applied there will be changes in the ratio

What is the effect of variation in supply voltage?

A: Depends on the circuitry involved an op amp normally has a 90 Db rejection from variation, Logic gates however are more sensitive to power supply variation for the simple point that triggering points changes which translate in false triggering and the circuits miss behaving

What are most miscellaneous electronic components used for?

Most miscellaneous electronic components are used to accomplish or support the primary electronic functions of rectification, amplification, oscillation, and switching and timing.

How do dental x ray machines work?

An electrical current is passed through a cathode, which emits electrons. Next, a high voltage electrical source is powered on the other end of the x-ray tube, which makes the electrons move to the other side. The electrons then collide with an anode, which produces the photons that are needed to produce x-rays.

What is a maxi computer?

There is a company called Maxis who have brought programs like SimCity to the wider games world. The only other thing that fits the Maxi Computer description is a supercomputer on the US Defence Department could afford.

What is the working principle of DMM?

a digital multimeter uses similar input circuits to those used in an analog multimeter for the various scales, but uses a dual slope integrating analog to digital converter to get a precise digital value of four or five digits to display. this type of analog to digital converter is slow but very precise, also though slow it is more than fast enough for a human to not perceive the slowness.

What is kirchoff voltage law and kirchoff current law?

kirchoffs voltage law : the algebric sum of all voltage drop is equal to algebric sum of voltage rise

kirchoffs current law : algebric sum of all current entering at a node is equal to algebric sum of current leaving

Comment

It's Kirchhoff, not 'Kirchoff'!

Why gunn diode and impatt diode are not common microwave devices?

These are a niche market, and the demand is not particularly high. Designing a Gunn or Impatt oscillator is not a trivial exercise, and the biasing is a pain. These designs are generally built by skilled craftsmen and are not suited to mass production. At 24 GHz or below, a GaAs MESFET or PHEMT is much more practical as an active device.

What is the difference between absolute zero and relative zero?

The term "absolute zero" is used for the minimal possible temperature (-273 K).

The term "relative zero" is not a term I know, but it could refer to the difference between two velocities, which are equal. In Physics, independent observers do not observe a velocity of the other if they are moving at the same speed (relative zero). <Feb 18, 2014 - Bruno>

Can back EMF be greater than battery EMF?

Yes. Let's look at an example.

A 12 volt system can operate a 12 volt relay coil to actuate the plunger. But when the field of the coil collapses in the instant following when the coil is de-energized, the collapsing field can generate an "inductive kick" that can easily reach several hundred volts.

Relay coils frequently have diodes across their coils to shunt this voltage through the coil and prevent it reaching other parts of the circuit because it is a higher voltage and could damage components.

As a closing note, you're not "getting something for nothing" or generating more energy out of the coil than originally went in. The power in still equals the power out (less any loss). With a properly designed coil utilizing Marko Rodin's configuration, losses are negligible.

What is the var meter?

A VAR Meter is used to measure Reactive Power in AC Circuits - Pure reactive components dissipate zero power, which makes sense in a DC circuit, as a capacitor passes no DC current and an inductor displaces no voltage. Yet, in an AC circuit, the reactive components "seem" to dissipate power, as current passes through the capacitor and the inductor sees a voltage drop. This counterfeit power is called "reactive power" and is measured not in Watts, but in VARs (Volt-Amps-Reactive). Its mathematical formula symbol is "Q".

Will 4 5.5 ohm speakers connect to an amplifier with a 16 ohm output impedance?

Yes, they will. One can connect anything to anything else. Will it work? If so, how well? Is it safe? If the four speakers are connected in series, the total impedance of the speakers will be the sum of all the impedances of the speakers: 5.5 + 5.5 + 5.5 + 5.5 = 22 ohms The 22 ohm load on the amplifier will be a bit higher than the amp has been designed for, but the setup will work. At modest power levels it is doubtful that anything audible will be noticeable because of that slight mismatch, and as long as one doesn't crank it up too high, the amp won't notice the difference. It would be wise when hooking up the speakers to insure they are all hooked up in phase... Something important has to be added: There is really no 16 ohm amplifier on the market. The amplifier will have an output impedance of around 0.08 ohms. In hi-fi we have always impedance bridging. Zout << Zin. That means that the output impedance of the amplifier is much less than the input impedance of the loud speaker. The damping factor Df = Zin / Zout tells you what Zout is. Zout = Zin/Df. If the damping factor Df = 200 and the loudspeaker impedance is Zin = 16 ohms, the output impedance of the amplifier is Zout = 16 / 200 = 0.08 ohms. You see, there is no "16 ohm amplifier" with a 16 ohm output impedance. Scroll down to related links and look at "Voltage Bridging - Zout < Zin".

The speed at which an electrical current can do work is measured in which unit?

The rate at which work IS being done - or at which it would be done if you switched on an electrical appliance or some other piece of electrical equipment - is called 'power' and it is measured in watts.

What is the relationship among voltage current and resistance in a circuit?

Voltage = (current) x (resistance)

Current = (voltage)/(resistance)

Resistance = (voltage)/(current)
