Power Electronic Switching components like BJT, MOSFET, IGBT, SCR, TRIAC, etc. are essential devices used in the design of many circuits ranging from a simple driver circuit to…
One of the most important functions of electronic circuitry is amplification. In the absence of amplification, many other specific circuits would not work. For example,…
A potentiometer is a variable resistor that can be used in a circuit to control resistance, current, and voltage through a circuit to attain a certain output, we already know the…
Heat shrink tubing is the method of covering or encasing the wires or cables in an insulating tube for protecting the wires from external disturbances. The Heat Shrink Tubing can…
There are only three basic components in any electronic circuit design- resistor, capacitor, and inductor. We have already covered the introduction to a resistor and its different…
MOSFET is one of the important components in Power Electronics and we have covered many MOSFETs with their Pin diagram, datasheet, features and how to use them in the circuit.…
The term SCR stands for silicon controlled rectifier which is one of the most important members of the thyristor family. It is more popular than the other Thyristors like TRIAC,…
Carbon Film Resistors Vs Metal Oxide Film Resistors
Invented in the year 1959 by Boykin, Resistors are widely used in almost all electronic circuits today. Resistors can be defined as a device that resists the flow of current…
TRIAC – Symbol, Construction, Working with Application Circuits
The word TRIAC can be expanded as a TRIode for Alternating Current. While other power electronic switches like MOSFET, IGBT, etc are used for switching/controlling DC power, the…
Microcontrollers are everywhere these days, if you look around your home, your car or work environment you will find them working silently under the hood and serving their purpose…
