Communication is one of the most important parts of any IoT project. The ability of a thing to communicate with other “things” (a device cloud/server) is what gives the “thing” the right to attach the “internet” to its name. While tons of communication protocols exist, each of them lacks one thing or the other which made them “not totally suitable” for IoT applications…
Op-amp or Operational Amplifier is the backbone of Analog Electronics and out of many applications, such as Summing Amplifier, differential amplifier, Instrumentation Amplifier, Op-Amp can also be used as integrator which is a very useful circuit in analog related application.
In simple Op-Amp applications, the output is proportional to…
The need for an efficient and flexible electricity transmission system has been consistently felt in today’s industrialized economies. There are a number of options available to policymakers and commercial entities, with high voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission systems emerging as a feasible mechanism of energy management.
The development of…
Current is a very critical factor in Electronics or Electrical Engineering. In electronics, current can have a bandwidth from few nano-amperes to hundreds of amperes. This range can be much wider in Electrical domain typically to several thousand amperes, especially in Power Grids. There are different methods to sense and measure current inside a circuit or a conductor. In…
Electric vehicles are not something new to this world, but with the technological advancement and increased concern on controlling pollution has given it a tag of future mobility. The core element of the EV, apart from Electric Vehicle Batteries, which replaces the Internal Combustion engines is an Electric motor. The rapid development in the field of Power electronics and…
The global market for automotive Battery Management Systems has seen a sea change in demand in the past few years with burgeoning sales of battery-operated vehicles. Manufacturers in the battery management systems market view Electric Vehicle sales as the bedrock upon which the innovative and technologically advanced battery management systems are developed and maintained.…
Power is an important part of any electronics project/device. Irrespective of the source, there is usually a need to perform power management tasks like voltage transformation/scaling, and conversion (AC-DC / DC-DC) among others. Choosing the right solution for each of these tasks can be key to the success (or failure) of the product. One of the most common power management…
Before starting with Serial Communication Protocols, let’s break down the terminology into three parts. Communication is a very well-known terminology that involves the exchange of information between two or more mediums. In embedded systems, communication means the exchange of data between two microcontrollers in the form of bits. This exchange of data bits in a…
Electric motors have become a huge part of our lives. They are found in all sort of devices from electric cars to drones, robots and other Electronics Devices. In general terms, an electric Motor is a device which converts electrical energy to mechanical energy. They are usually referred to as the exact opposite of generators as they operate on similar principles and can…
The capacitor is the most common component in electronics and is used in almost every electronics application. There are many types of capacitors available in the market for serving different purposes in any electronic circuit. They are available in many different values from 1 pico-Farad to 1 Farad capacitors and Supercapacitors. Capacitors also have different types of…
With growing popularity of microcontrollers engineers are using microcontrollers more than FPGAs. The Microcontrollers have become dominant over FPGA because of their cheap cost, good support, easy availability, large community, versatility, programming etc. But other than that microprocessors have some limitations such as the instructions set, sequential execution of…
In previous tutorial, we started with Understanding an Inductor and It's Working, now it is time to explore the different combinations of Inductors. In electronics, Inductors are the most commonly used components after the capacitors and resistors, which are used in different combinations for different applications. We have also used inductor to build metal detectors and…
