As you said, these are voltage-controlled devices. whereas BJTs are current controlled device. Requiring no input control current is a major advantage of IGBTs. “. . . used in applications such as induction heating . . .” I have one of those induction-heated water pots for tea. They heat scary fast and they have […]
Read MoreBasic Operation: JFETs (Junction Field-Effect Transistors) are kind of like spigots. Using the image below, I’ll explain my analogy of an N-Channel JFET. The Gate, formed by two p-type regions within the n-channel (which are connected internally), acts as the valve body (handle, stem, packing, etc.) This will restrict the flow of water- and […]
Read MoreI am going to talk about the basic operation MOSFET. MOSFET stands for metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor. Like any conventional transistor, it is a type of transistor with many applications in modern power electronics. Moreover, its functioning is based on how electricity flows through it. It is important to note that there are many […]
Read MoreSee attachment solving a separable differential equation by isolating x and y and integrating. The step with division by the binomial tends to be a tricky one to see. In the final step, we see an application for U-Substitution as well.
Read MoreAmplifiers have many useful applications in electronics. Similarly, transistors can be used for more than just amplification. What are some of the types of amplifiers and what are their classifications? In your own words compare the applications of different amplifier types and classes. Explain what is meant by ‘TFT’ that you always find in […]
Read MoreYour solution should include all mathematical steps as well as explanations in your own words. You can type this with the equation editor right here in the reply box, you can use an image file to show hand-written work, or you can make a video using the media tool to provide your explanations! I encourage […]
Read MorePublic networks (like coffee shops or hotel networks) are often open networks. Do you use this type of network? What types of things do you do while connected to the network? Do you shop? Check bank balances? Pay your credit card? Do you know anyone who does any of these things? Is this safe? Why […]
Read MoreVisit the Google Play store (for Android) or the App Store (for Apple devices) and choose two applications that you feel will help you as you progress through school. You can consider time-management tools, note-taking tools, study tools (such as math games), or any other tools you believe will be useful. For each app you […]
Read MoreConsider two situations where you would recommend two different programming languages as the development solution. Explain your reasons for choosing each language, identifying the benefits and potential limitations depending on future changes. Consider ease of coding, scalability, and familiarity with other languages.
Read MoreComplete an Internet search for Oracles VirtualBox, a great tool which allows a user to experience other operating systems on their existing Windows or Mac OS without a complicated dual boot configuration. What are some primary reasons why this software is used? What are the key benefits? Are there any disadvantages/risks?
