Terminology[edit] An integrated circuit is defined as:[2] A circuit in which all or some of the circuit elements are inseparably associated and electrically interconnected so that it is considered to be indivisible for the purposes of construction and commerce. Circuits meeting this definition can be constructed using many different technologies – see for example thin-film transistor‚ thick film technology‚ or hybrid integrated circuit. However‚ in general usage integrated circuit has since come

Figure 7-10 PEAK DETECTOR CIRCUIT A peak detector circuit is a series of diodes and op amps (operational amplifier) connected with capacitor in series fashion to store and hold the peak values given by voltage supply. This circuit will store the highest value or peak value of the given voltage or hold the last given peak voltage to the circuit from the voltage supplier. Peak detector converts the Ac voltage to DC voltage and reduces the disturbance. The function can be explained as follow

ABSTRACT The short and unpredictable nature of the conventional chemical batteries‚ along with the frequent replacements that they require‚ has created an acute need for a reliable‚ longer-lasting and rugged source of energy. Moreover Radars‚ spacecrafts‚ interstellar probes and other advanced communication devices require much larger power than that can be met by conventional energy sources. The solution to long term energy source is the nuclear powered batteries which have a life span of few

CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 Preamble In former times‚ information systems were designed to support the execution of individual tasks. Today’s information systems need to support the business processes at hand. It no longer suffices to focus on just the tasks. The information system also needs to control‚ monitor and support the logistical aspects of a business process. In other words‚ the information system also has to manage the flow of work through the organization. Many organizations with

Sean Braun Assignment 9 There are two main types of fibre optic transmitter that are in use today. Both of them are based around semiconductor technology: • Light emitting diodes (LEDs) • Laser diodes Semiconductor optical transmitters have many advantages. They are small‚ convenient‚ and reliable. However‚ the two different types of fibre optic transmitter have very different properties and they tend to be used in widely different applications. LED transmitters These fibre optic transmitters
