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.

What type of rectifier used in radar?

the usual semiconductor rectifier used in the microwave band is a gunn diode. Vacuum tube diodes are sometimes used too.

What are the advantages of embedded systems?

Embedded systems can be run on very limited hardware and do not require a lot of extra "stuff" around. This also makes them excellent candidates as mobile systems.

How does white noise work?

Life is full of disruptive sounds and noises, such as honking car horns, barking dogs, noisy neighbors, annoying snoring and screaming sirens. Unlike playing music in such instances, white noise does not add to the clamor of noise. Instead, white noise contains equal frequencies of all sounds. Research has shown that a steady, monotonous stream of the same peaceful sound, such as white noise, can filter and mask distracting noises. The same soothing sonic benefits of white noise are quite effective in creating the right ambience for both parent and child to enable a safe yet natural sleep. Among their recommendations for alleviating tinnitus symptoms, many audiologists and the American Academy of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery suggest masking the ringing sound: play a competing sound at a constant low level, such white noise, to mask the tinnitus and make it less noticeable. The Hyperacusis Network notes that "White noise contains all frequencies, and therefore very gently stimulates all the nerve cells in the these subconscious networks, allowing them to be more easily programmed, or reset, so that tinnitus signals are no longer detected. It also reduces the contrast between tinnitus and otherwise total silence." Fromhttp://www.PureWhiteNoise.com

Is resistance a linear device?

YES it is linear. It is a passive device classified as linear however as frequency increases its behavior will change.

How do you find OHM?

Ohms can be found by using these formulas. Ohms = Volts/Amps, Ohms = (Volts (squared))/Watts, Ohms = Watts/(Amps (squared)).

What is meant by mutual inductance?

Mutual inductance is where two electrically separate coils of wire are either close to each other or share the same core. An alternating current flowing in one of the coils will 'induce' a current to flow in the other coil. For example by using coils wound with wire of the correct length and thickness, a transformer fed by mains electricity can by mutual inductance, produce a lower voltage to power your PC or radio.

Comment

Mutual inductance occurs when a changing current (a.c. or d.c.) flowing in one coil induces a voltage (not a current!) into a second coil.

In Logic What is equipollence?

When two statements have the same truth values: e.g. (All men are mortal, No men are not mortal) (No men are brutes, all men are not brutes) (All men are mortal, It is not true that some men are not mortal) (No brute is rational, it is not true that some brute is rational) (Some animal is a fish, it is not true that no animal is a fish) (Some animal is not a fish, it is not true that all animals are fish) etc... the two statements within each set of brackets are equipollent. They are true together and false together. The word equipollence etymologically means 'equal power'.

Does radar detect motorcycles?

Yes. But a motorcycle is a relatively small target. Depending on the radar and the circumstances, it might be possible to argue something like "look past" error. But fighting a radar ticket can be difficult. There are other related questions on WikiAnswers on radar-based citations.

How can you calculate the current in 40 X 40W tube lights in 230V?

power is = V2/R

so

40x40= (230)2/R

R= 33.25

now

V= IR

where I is current

230= IXR

I= 230/33.25

= 6.9 amp

Why op amp do not work in high frequency?

the op amp is a one IC which does not work at hige volteg so the IC not consumed the high frequncy

Why are resistances parallel to short circuits neglected in a circuit?

You can consider a short circuit to be a resistor with R=0 Ohms. It is then clear by the equation for calculation of parallel resistance that the combined resistance of a resistor in parallel to a short circuit is 0.

Consider the following example with R1= 1k Ohms and R2= 0 Ohms:

Rtotal = R1*R2 / (R1+R2) = R1*0 / R1 = 0 Ohms.

What is the function of the legs on a transistor?

as the name suggest transistor means to transfer resistor, it is an electronic device,

What are the applications of 4 bit adder and subtractor?

An adder-subtractor is a circuit capable of subtracting or adding binary numbers. The application of a 4-bit adder and subtractor is for use as part of the core of an ALU, or arithmetic logic unit.

What do radar balloons do?

This could mean:

  • A radar attached to a balloon
  • A balloon used by a radar for calibration

What is a rigid flex pcb used for?

A rigid flex printed circuit board is used in some specialized electronics equipment. Some examples of electronics that use this form of circuit board include military equipment and cell phones.

What is the advantage of bistable multivibrator using 555 ic over those made with opamp or bjt?

The advantage is most of the circuit has already been connected up for you and you only have to add a dc power supply and couple of components to set what frequency you want it to work at.

Would a multimeter connected in parallel as part of the circuit measure current or power consumption or voltage or wattage?

A typical multimeter measures voltage and resistance "in parallel" or current in-line with the circuit.

It all depends on the model. 'Multi' means many different modes. Some have more than others.

Some multimeters can measure current, but require you to alter the lead configuration and plug into different sockets.

If you have the meter set for Current measurement and you put it in parallel instead of series, it will cause a dead short and could damage the meter. (They usually have a fuse inside for protection).

Knowing any two of the three parameters you can calculate the third by Ohm's Law: Voltage = Current x Resistance.

Knowing Current and Voltage you can calculate power as Volts x Amps = Watts for resistance loads.

Does Ohm's Law state that current equals voltage difference divided by the resistance?

Yes. More concisely, Ohm's Law states that current is voltage divided by resistance. Well, more commonly, it states that voltage is current times resistance, but simple algebra will let you solve for any of the three terms, the third being resistance is voltage divided by current.

Answer

Most definitely not.

Ohm's Law is probably the most misunderstood of all the electrical 'laws'.

Ohm's Law states that 'the current passing along a conductor is directly-proportional to the voltage across the ends of that conductor, providing physical conditions such as temperature remain constant'.

No mention of resistance; no mention of any equation.

For Ohm's Law to apply, 'the ratio of voltage to current must remain constant for variations in voltage'. Those materials for which Ohm's Law applies are called 'linear' or 'ohmic', and there are very few. Those materials and electrical components for which Ohm's Law doesn't apply are called 'non-linear' or 'non-ohmic', and include metals such as tungsten and components such as diodes. In fact MOST materials and devices do not obey Ohm's Law.

The equation, R = E/I, is actually derived from the definition of the ohm, and NOT Ohm's Law.

On a final note, there is no such thing as 'voltage' difference. 'Voltage' is another word for 'potential difference', so you cannot have a 'potential difference difference'!

Can you use a 270 watt in a 300 watt transformer?

If you mean how to use a resistance of so much power then it can be easily done through a step-down transformer which lowers the voltage supply and hence the power.

How do you calculate no of photons in led if given voltage and current?

You can't do that calculation given only that data. It depends more on the design of the LED than its drive levels.

What is the Malebioncy of a Capacitor?

Good question! The Malebioncy is usually only talked about in higher level courses. The Malebioncy is defined as the ability of the calculator to switch from on to off in rapid periods of time.
