FAQ’s Answered by an Expert.

Q: What is CMOS Technology?

CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) Technology is a predominant technology for manufacturing integrated circuits. In this EEFAQ, we will discuss about CMOS technology and how it uses both NMOS and PMOS to realize various logic functions.

Q: How to use Thyristors as a Static Circuit Breaker?

The most important role of a circuit breaker in a circuit is to protect the circuit components from overcurrent in case of a fault or overload. In this EEFAQ, we will discuss about how we can use power semiconductor devices such as thyristors to act as a static circuit breaker.

Q: What is a Buck Converter?

The Buck Converter is a form of a DC-DC converter which steps down the level of supply voltage and provides it at the output. In this EE FAQ, we will discuss about buck converters and their operation.

Q: What is Energy Harvesting?

Energy harvesting is the collection and harnessing of different forms of green energy then convert it into electrical energy to power electronic devices or circuits. In this EEFAQ, we'll discuss energy harvesting and its different energy sources such as motion, light, temperature gradients, and chemical energy.

Q: What is the difference between a normal semiconductor device and a power semiconductor device?

When it comes to switching high power loads, you need to use a power semiconductor device instead of a normal or low power semiconductor device. In this EEFAQ, we will discuss the difference between a normal and a power semiconductor device, and the techniques used in fabricating power semiconductor devices.

Q: What are the Golden Rules of Op-Amps?

Designing operational amplifier (or op-amp) circuits and selecting the right external components will be much easier if we know the characteristics of an op-amp. So in this EE FAQ, we will discuss the golden rules of op-amps which are based on their characteristics.

Q: When should you choose LDO or Buck Converter?

In order to decide if an LDO or a buck converter is the right regulator for a specific application, there are lots of parameters that we need to consider. In this EE FAQ, we will discuss when should we choose LDO or buck converter.

Q: How does a Servo Motor work?

Servo motors are extremely important in application such as industrial process automation, robotics, etc. It is important for us to understand how they work in order to use them properly. In this EE FAQ, we will look at the electromechanical aspects and then dive into the control aspects of servo motors.

Q: What are Harmonics and how does it affect an Electrical System?

Harmonics are that part of a signal whose frequencies are integral multiples of the system’s fundamental frequency. In this EE FAQ, we will discuss what causes harmonics and how does it affect an electrical system negatively.

Q: How is the electronic fan regulator different from the conventional fan regulator?

Fans are probably one of the most used household electrical appliances in the world and they are also used extensively for thermal management. In this EE FAQ, we will learn two ways to control the speed of a fan and see which of them is more efficient.
