Designing an efficient Power Supply circuit is not less of a challenge. Those who have already worked with SMPS circuits would easily agree that the flyback transformer design plays a vital role in designing an efficient power supply circuit. Most times these transformers are not available off the shelf in the exact same parameter that suits our design. So in this…
Human lifespan has exponentially increased in recent times and is expected to go up to 80 years till 2050. One of the most important factors based on which the age graph has increased is the involvement of Information and communications technology (ICT) in the health care sector is continuously increasing, giving rise to a major innovation in various medical devices and…
Just like the previous case studies, we bring to you one more actual incident that happened in one of the Chemical / Process Industry. We thought it was important and must be brought to notice to all concerned people working in O&M or Project in chemical industries to take due note of it as it may help other industries who doesn’t know about it.
Repeated…
Can Programming in DCS also lead to Tripping of HT Motors? In today’s case study I am going to present a case involving GRR (Grid Rotor Resistance) which is used in Slip ring induction motor. This type of problem is pretty rare in industries and hence would like to share the experience, so that the problem we faced will not be faced by others or can be avoided…
AUTOSAR (Automotive Open System Architecture) can be defined as a common platform for the whole automotive industry that is designed to enhance the scope of application for vehicle functionality without affecting the current operating model. AUTOSAR is basically an open and standard software architecture which was jointly developed by automobile manufacturers, suppliers…
Industry 4.0 is the fancy name given to the fourth Industrial revolution. In this article, we will discuss about what is Industry 4.0 and how is it going to enhance the future of Industries? Why such a buzz about it? Why failing to adopt it may kill your business? Let us take a look. It is sometime spelled as Industrie 4.0, this is the German translation of Industry so both…
Unless some Tony Stark steps in and invents the Arc reactor or the research in Solar Power Satellites (SPS) for wireless Energy transfer gets through, we humans have to depend on Batteries for powering our portable or remote electronic devices. The most common type of rechargeable batteries that you find in consumer electronics is either Lithium ion or of Lithium Polymer…
Operational Amplifiers or Op-Amps are considered the workhorse of Analog Electronic Designs. Back from the Analog computers era, Op-Amps have been used for mathematical operations with analog voltages, hence the name operational amplifier. To date, Op-Amps are extensively used for voltage comparison, differentiation, integration, summation and many other things. Needless to…
Solenoids are simple components that can be used for various applications. The name solenoid is derived from the Greek word “Solen” which means a channel or a pipe. Solenoids are used in both domestic and industrial equipments, they are available in various designs, each of them has their own specific applications. Although the application changes, their working principle…
Most of us would have commonly noticed the terms “Patented, patent-pending, patent applied for” written on the goods, products or devices that we buy. Have you ever tried to dig deeper into the meaning of these terms, ever thought why the manufacturer or maker of the product is mentioning it, what is its sole purpose?
…
You might be tempted to dismiss the good old tube as a relic of the past – after all, how can a few pieces of metal in a glorified light bulb hold up to the transistors and integrated circuits of today? Although tubes lost their place in the storefront of consumer electronics but they still remain insignificant use where there is need for a lot of power at very high (GHz…
Today, electronic devices have shrunken in size than ever before. This enables us to pack in tones of features in compact portable devices like smart watches, fitness trackers, and other wearable devices, it also helps us to deploy remote IoT devices for cattle monitoring, asset tracking etc. One common thing among all these portable devices is that they are battery operated…
