INTEGRATED CIRCUITS The History of the Integrated Circuit the Integrated Circuit Generations What is a Microchip? How do microchips work? How are microchips made? By definition the integrated circuit aka microchip is a set of interconnected electronic components such as transistors and resistors‚ that are etched or imprinted on a onto a tiny chip of a semiconducting material‚ such as silicon or germanium. The History of the Integrated Circuit Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce

DISTRIBUTION AUTOMATION Abstract— This White Paper on‚ “Power systems” addresses the working process‚ benefits and challenges of implementing Distribution Automation in electrical power distribution sector. The demand for electrical energy is increasing every day. Today over 24% of total electrical energy generated in India is lost in transmission (6%) and distribution (18%). The electrical power deficit in country is currently about 18%. Therefore reduction in distribution

Circuit City Circuit City Stores‚ Inc. (former NYSE ticker symbol CC) was an American multinational consumer electronics corporation. It was founded in 1949 and pioneered the electronics superstore format in the 1970s. By 2000‚ many Circuit City stores were out of date and in bad locations‚ unable to compete with the competition from newer Best Buy stores. In 2000‚ Circuit City abandoned the large appliance business and introduced a more self-serve format called "Horizon". This was controversial

Measurements of Capacitance and Inductance Purpose: To use equipment and techniques to determine the structure of a hidden series RLC circuit and to measure the values of the various components in that circuit. Theory: To see how an RLC circuit works‚ consider the circuit in Figure 1 with the capacitor initially charged. Fig. 1 RLC Circuit Since there is a conducting wire connecting the negative side of the capacitor to the positive‚ a current will begin to flow in the counterclockwise

short circuit is a fault in which current bypasses the normal load. An open-circuit fault occurs if a circuit is interrupted by some failure. In three-phase systems‚ a fault may involve one or more phases and ground‚ or may occur only between phases. In a "ground fault" or "earth fault"‚ charge flows into the earth. The prospective short circuit current of a fault can be calculated for power systems. In power systems‚ protective devices detect fault conditions and operate circuit breakers and other
