Diodes a diode is a two-terminal electronic component with asymmetric conductance‚ it has low (ideally zero) resistance to current flow in one direction‚ and high (ideally infinite) resistance in the other. A semiconductor diode‚ the most common type today‚ is a crystalline piece of semiconductor material with a p–n junction connected to two electrical terminals. A vacuum tube diode has two electrodes‚ a plate (anode) and aheated cathode. Semiconductor diodes were

INVISIBLE BROKEN WIRE DETECTOR 1 1. INTRODUCTION In our day to day life we are dealing with electricity as well as so many electrical equipments. In this electrical equipment the household appliances play a major role. So the fault occurring with them is also a major problem. Generally the fault seen is the breaking of wire inside the two layer or three layer cables or the short circuit between them. Portable loads such as video cameras‚ halogen flood lights‚ electrical irons‚ hand drill

could not replace the germanium diode‚ and that the crystal radio ware efficient as a normal store bought radio. On experiment two the crystal radio had like 3 stations. The sound was very clear and loud. Also‚ the bobby pin method did not work. There were lots of hypothesis that did not support the results. Some hypothesis that did not support was that the safety pin could replace the germanium diode. The safety pin wasn’t suitable to replace the germanium diode. One of the rejected hypotheses

1. Introduction Automatic Street Light Control System is a simple and powerful concept‚ which uses transistor as a switch to switch ON and OFF the street light automatically. By using this system manual works are removed. It automatically switches ON lights when the sunlight goes below the visible region of our eyes. It automatically switches OFF lights under illumination by sunlight. This is done by a sensor called Light Dependant Resistor (LDR) which senses the
