Midterm Case Analysis Problem Statement 1.Situation Canadian Solar which is a traded solar cell and module manufacturer has experienced recent strong growth. Despite 2009 fluctuations in the solar industry namely for PV technology‚ the growth has been fuelled by Government incentives programs to encourage solar PV technology. The Solar industry is now highly competitive and companies follow an industrial organizational model. This is because they all compete mainly in PV technology‚ and this

Introduction 1.1 What is Semiconductor A semiconductor is a solid whose electrical conductivity can be controlled over a wide range‚ either permanently or dynamically. Semiconductors are tremendously important technologically and economically. Silicon is the most commercially important semiconductor‚ though dozens of others are important as well. 1.2 What is Semiconductor Industry The semiconductor industry is the collection of business firms engaged in the design and fabrication of semiconductor

Study of passive filter characterization for PCB application Chapter 1: Introduction Project Description Passive filters are relatively simple electronic part that consists with resistors‚ capacitors‚ and inductors. The function of the passive filter is to allow a certain range of frequencies to pass‚ can be used to separate signals‚ passing those of interest‚ and also can reject noise and attenuating the unwanted frequencies. In this project‚ there are three type of passive filters that
