Conductors and Insulators of Electricity A major reason electricity works is because of conductors. First metal‚ water‚ tall trees and tall items are good conductors because lightning is attracted to them. These materials have many mobile electrons. Metal is an easy substance for lightning to travel through so metals are good conductors. However‚ rubber is a bad conductor because lightning bounces off of it. A bad conductor is called an insulator. An insulator has a few mobile electrons. It is

is rated to operate over a −55˚ to +150˚C temperature range‚ while the LM35C is rated for a −40˚ to +110˚C range (−10˚with improved accuracy). The LM35 series is available packaged in hermetic TO-46 transistor packages‚ while the LM35C‚ LM35CA‚ and LM35D are also available in the plastic TO-92 transistor package. The LM35D is also available in an 8-lead surface mount small outline package and a plastic TO-220 package. Features * Calibrated directly in ˚ Celsius (Centigrade) * Linear + 10.0

CMOS Memory Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) is a transistor that combines both positive and negative channel in the same circuit‚ and consume lower amounts of power when compare with single polarity devices. In 1963 C. T. Sah and Frank Wanlass prove that combining both channels in a circuit drew close to zero power in standby mode. RCA laboratories first produce CMOS technology for aerospace and commercial applications. The first static RAM was introduced in 1968 with

Abstract A number of satellite communication systems have been proposed using geosynchronous (GEO) satellites‚ as well as low earth orbit (LEO) constellations operating in the Ka-band and above. At these frequencies satellite networks are able to provide broadband services requiring wider bandwidth than the current services at C or Ku-band. As a consequence‚ some of the new services gaining momentum include mobile services‚ private intranets and high data rate internet access carried over integrated

After he joined the faculty of the University at Buffalo‚ he worked on new transistors recording high-frequency heart sounds. By mistake‚ he installed a resistor with the wrong resistance‚ but he recognized that the pulse it created was identical to a normal beating heart‚ Greatbatch said in his book "The Making of the Pacemaker (Unite

Brief History of Library Automation: 1930-1996 An automated library is one where a computer system is used to manage one or several of the library’s key functions such as acquisitions‚ serials control‚ cataloging‚ circulation and the public access catalog. When exploring the history of library automation‚ it is possible to return to past centuries when visionaries well before the computer age created devices to assist with their book lending systems. Even as far back as 1588‚ the invention of

time. They did not support multitasking. Till the 1950s all computers that were used were vacuum tube based. In the 1960s‚ transistor based computers replaced vacuum tubes. Transistors made computers smaller and cheaper. They made computers energy-efficient. But transistors led to emission of large amounts of heat from the computer‚ which could damage them. The use of transistors marked the second generation of computers. Computers of this generation used punched cards for input. They used assembly
