Advantages and disadvantages of transistor series voltage regulator

There are some advantages of transistor series voltage regulator are given below, The transistor series voltage regulator has output voltage remains constant in spite of change in temperature. It has low ripple content in the output DC

What is fiber optic communication ?

The fiber optic technology has been developed mostly for use in communication. fiber-optic communication is transmitting information from one place to another by sending pulses of light through an optical fiber. a technology that uses glass or threads to transmit data. a

What is function of a resistor in electronic circuits?

Some important functions of resistor in electronic circuits is given below. Resistor set up the proper value of voltage across it due to IRdrop. Resistors play an important role to limit the current in any electronic circuits. Resistor

Difference between shunt voltage regulator and series voltage regulator

Following are main difference between shunt voltages regulator and  series voltages regulator Shunt voltages regulator Series voltages regulator Shunt voltage regulator has good voltage regulation even at high load currents. Series voltage regulator has not so good

Construction of Ceramic trimmer capacitor

The constructional diagram of a ceramic trimmer capacitor is as shown in fig. The ceramic trimmer capacities are constructed in two forms as under. Rotary type ceramic trimmer. Concentric type ceramic trimmer. The construction of rotary type

Resistor in series

Resistors are said to be connected in series, when they are daisy chained together in a single line.  The current in a series circuit goes through every component in the circuit. Therefore, all of the components in a

Resistor in parallel

Resistors are said to be connected together in parallel when both of their terminals are respectively connected to each terminal of the other resistor or resistors. In a parallel circuit, each device is placed in its own
