ROUTER A hardware device designed to take incoming packets, analyzing the packets and then directing them to the appropriate locations, moving the packets to another network, converting the packets to be moved across a different network interface, dropping the packets, or performing any other … [Read more...]
Digital VLSI circuits are usually classifed into: 1) Synchronous Sequential Circuits 2) Asynchronous Sequential Circuits Synchronous Sequential Circuits If the transitions in a sequential circuit from one state to next state are controlled by a CLOCK, then the circuit is called synchronous … [Read more...]
A relay is an electrically operated switch. Current flowing through the coil of the relay creates a magnetic field which attracts a lever and changes the switch contacts. The coil current can be on or off so relays have two switch positions and most have double throw (changeover) switch contacts as … [Read more...]
Virtual machine is taken to be efficient, isolated duplicate of the real machine. This is explained using the idea of virtual machine monitor (VMM). This VMM has three characteristics - It provides an environment for programs which is identical with the original machine. Program runs this … [Read more...]
PHASE SHIFTERS Phase Shifters are devices, in which the phase of an electromagnetic wave of a given frequency can be shifted when propagating through a transmission line. In many fields of electronics, it is often necessary to change the phase of signals. RF and microwave Phase Shifters have … [Read more...]
3G is pretty frequently used word when it comes to mobile technology but what is 4G Technology? 4G is short for Fourth (4th) Generation Technology. 4G Technology is basically the upgraded technology of 3G technology with some modification like more bandwidth, speed,performance etc. But at this … [Read more...]
BASIC is one of the oldest and one of the easiest programming languages to learn. You should be able to learn and program in BASIC in less than an hour. In this chapter, we shall be looking at the principles of programming PIC microcontrollers using the PicBasic and PicBasic Pro languages. Both … [Read more...]
Electronic component sales have increasingly shifted to the Internet during recent years, particularly in English-speaking countries. That’s hardly surprising. It’s nearly impossible for a local electronics shop to keep up with the enormous range of components and continuous stream of new … [Read more...]
3-D films have existed in some form since the 1950s, but had been largely relegated to a niche in the motion picture industry because of the costly hardware and processes required to produce and display a 3-D film, and the lack of a standardized format for all segments of the entertainment … [Read more...]
Most of us would have heard about the term open source software but there is also something called open hardware, Arduino is one of the famous open hardware microcontroller board. In this generation it is obvious that everybody has a mobile phone. So the next question would be is there any open … [Read more...]
