What is electrical network?

The interconnection of electrical components like resistors, inductors, semiconductors devices, transformers and sources of e.m.f. is called as a network. The network consist a closed loop, which provides return path for the current. A network may contain

Advantages and disadvantages of π type filter

There are some advantages of π type filter which are given below, The quality of output DC voltage is very good. It has higher DC output voltage at heavy loads. It is easy to design. It has

Advantages and disadvantages of choke input (LC) filter

There are some advantages of choke input (LC) filter are as given below, The choke input (LC) filter has a high output D.C voltage. It has no loading effect on the rectifier and power transformer. The diode

Working of true rms reading voltmeter

There  are two thermocouples namely measuring thermocouple and balancing thermocouple. They forms  a part of bridge at the input of DC amplifier. The same non linearity effect takes place in both the thermocouple, so this effect is compensated.

Construction of average responding voltmeter

The basic construction of average responding voltmeter is shown in above fig. at the input side of  an unknown voltage to be measured is applied. The blocking capacitor is used to  block dc signals entering into the

Advantages and disadvantages of true RMS reading voltmeter

There are some advantages of true RMS reading voltmeter which are given below, The true RMS value is measured independently of an input signal waveform. Because of the use of  two thermocouples, the non linearity problem is

Advantages and disadvantages of series inductor (L) filter

There are some advantages of series inductor (L) filter which are given below, The series inductor (L) filter reduces the ripple in the DC output of rectifier circuit. It has no surge current through diode. It has low

Working principle of Schottky diode

The metal region of schottky diode is heavily occupied with the conduction band electrons and the N type region is lightly doped. There are no minority carriers as in other types of diodes, but there are only

Construction of enhancement type N channel MOSFET

Enhancement mode : When the gate voltage is negative with respect to source, the depletion type MOSFET (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor) operates with an enhancement mode. The construction of N channel enhancement type MOSFET (metal

Construction of depletion type N channel MOSFET

Depletion mode : When the gate voltage is positive with respect to source, the depletion type MOSFET (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor) operates in depletion mode. The construction of depletion type N channel MOSFET (metal oxide
