A Clipper Circuit, also called a limiter, is an electronic circuit that removes or “clips” selected portions of an input signal without distorting the remaining waveform. Its primary purpose is to prevent a signal from rising above or falling below a specified voltage level. Because of this, clippers are widely used in waveform shaping, signal […]
Energy band theory of solids explains why some solids conduct electricity easily, why some do not, and why others behave in-between. Classical physics could not explain electrical conduction fully, but quantum mechanics and band theory together provide a complete picture. Solids are materials in which atoms are closely packed in a regular or irregular arrangement. […]
Voltage multiplier circuit forms a fundamental building block in high-voltage power supplies where the output voltage must be several times greater than the peak input voltage, yet the load current required is relatively small. Instead of using high-turn-ratio transformers which are large, expensive, and limited by insulation and core saturation constraints engineers often implement multipliers […]
The modern high-paced innovation environment is putting more pressure on robotics engineers to produce new prototypes as soon as possible and write about their work in an efficient manner. It is no longer the case that prototyping robotic systems and their exemplary documentation take months or even years. Emerging technologies and streamlined workflows significantly contribute […]
A piezometer is a geotechnical sensor that is employed for measuring porewater pressure at the ground level, which is called the piezometric level. Its main features are to measure water pressure in the earth, soil, and strong concrete designs. Pore pressure gauges provide data for the magnitude of pore pressures and evolution. We can also […]
Capacitors are fundamental passive components used in electronic circuits for energy storage, filtering, coupling, and timing. Among them, Non-polar or Non-polarized Capacitors hold a special place because they can operate with AC signals and DC voltages of either polarity. Their versatility and stability make them essential in audio systems, RF circuits, SMPS, industrial power systems, […]
