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 is the history of germanium diode?

Germanium point contact diodes were first created and used during World War 2 as detectors in microwave RADAR systems, as the vacuum tubes available at that time did not operate at microwave frequencies.

Shortly after World War 2 germanium junction diodes were created.

How do you measure voltage?

Voltage can be measured using the difference between the potentiel between two ends of wire or by using a volt-meter.

You can easily measure volt by volt or multimeter but remember voltage always measure across the components but in parallel

What applications would you use a unitary plc?

unitary PLC's are used in standalone systems as the have limited inputs and outputs,

theses are mainly used in small scale engineering companies in operations such as control operations, component counting and sorting.

How many amps would it take to kick a 15 amp breaker with 7 ohms resistance on a 277 volt circuit?

A 15 amp circuit breaker should trip at 15 amps regardless of the load voltages or impedances. If you have 277 volts and 7 ohms, the current would be 39.5 amps and a 15 amp circuit breaker should trip.

What is db gain?

DB (decibels) gain is the log based 2 times 3 relative power change measured from input to output of a circuit. For instance, +3db is twice the power, +6db is four times, +9db is eight times. Similarly, -3db is half the power, -6db is quarter the power, and -9 db is eighth the power.

Keep in mind that DB is relative power, not voltage, so if you are measuring voltage, then +3db is square root of 2 (1.414) times the voltage, etc.

What two types of ways the droplets of ink are formed in inkjet printers?

  1. piezoelectric crystal vibration generates pressure that ejects ink through the nozzle
  2. resistive pulse heater vaporizes a tiny amount of the water in the ink and steam pressure ejects ink through the nozzle

What is the advantage of a digital mixer?

A digital mixer enables one to change live vocal samples, add in previously recorded music or vocals and apply different effects and improvements. The advantage of a digital mixer is that one can do all of this simply, retain different versions along the way and produce a good quality output.

Can you work in embedded system design companies after working for 2 years in an IT company?

embedded systems are hardware

IT is software

if you are a Bookkeeper you may not see a difference

an electronic engineer would get in the embedded systems as soon as he could

What was the time frame of the civil war?

The Civil War in the United States lasted about four years. The fighting started in 1861 and ended in 1865 with the South surrendering to the North.

Why does white smoke come from window air conditioners in your home?

Actually it is not smoke but water molecules when it is working properly. AIR CON will remove most of the water from a room

What is the maximum recommended length of a parallel cable?

Parallel cables are typically used to connect a printer to a computer. It is a long cord with a broad, flat plug on either end. The recommended maximum length of a parallel cord is 6 feet.

Procedure for setting up a bench grinder?

Bench grinders need to be bolted down to keep them steady. Depending on the type of grinding desired, the small work plates in front of the wheels can be angled to grind at the direction needed.

In transformer how can you increase or decrease the voltage?

In a transformer, you increase or decrease the voltage by changing the turns ratio between the primary or secondary windings. Increase the turns on primary, and secondary voltage goes down. Increase the turns on secondary, and secondary voltage goes up.

Note that this usually involves choosing a different transformer, as changing the turns ratio is not something that can be easily done in the field. Some transformers have multiple taps on one of the windings which can be used to change turns ratio.

What is transient frequency?

Transient frequencies are short lasting wave form combination from several sources that produces frequencies that did not originate from the source. For example, there is a 40,000-watt stereo playing really loud techno music out in the woods. The speakers are in a valley that has an echo problem. The echos from the speakers can reverberate in such a way that they blend together and make sounds, often percussive, that were not part of the original music. You can hear this sometimes in corners of music venues too.

How does a ups recreate an ac sine wave?

By switching circuits or transistors that turn on and off the polarity. This usually results in a square wave output. Then capacitors charge and discharge to smooth out the square wave to resemble the AC sine wave. The better or more expensive the inverter, the closer to an actual sine wave it gets.

Do cells phones interfer with wireless microphones?

All communication systems use electromagentic waves which by the law of Superposition of Waves travel independently in any meadium and hence do not interfere but if the frequencies tend to match then the carrier waves with amplitude modulation are more affected and give poor quality sound at the receiving end than the frequency modulated carrier waves.

How do you produce delay in square wave signal?

It depends on how much delay you want, and also on the frequency. If you just need a few nanoseconds, run the square wave through an even number of series connected inverters. If you need 180 degrees, run it through one inverter. If you need something else, you may need a more complex solution, ranging from an RC coupled schmitt trigger to a digital phase locked loop.

What types of diodes are used in high frequencies?

Two types used at microwave frequencies are gunn and PIN diodes.

Why is a binary also called flip flop?

Binary is NOT called a flip flop!

  • binary is a mathematical notation for writing numeric values with only 2 symbols
  • a flip flop is one type of electronic circuit having 2 stable states

The 2 stable states of a flip flop can be used as one way of physically representing and storing the 2 symbols of binary notation, but there are millions of other circuits and mechanisms that can do the same!
