All you need to know about potentiometers
Potentiometers, or ‘Pots’ as they are commonly known among engineers, are essentially resistors that incorporate a mechanical adjustment mechanism enabling their resistance to be…
Power MOSFET and it’s characteristics
This post tells about power MOSFET characteristics and operating modes. Power MOSFET is a unipolar three-terminal semiconductor device that controls the large amounts of…
Complex conductance. Active and reactive power
Complex conductance Y is the value, reverse to the complex resistance Z, where Y=1Z=ye-jφ. Complex conductance is measured with Siemens (1Ohm), Y=1R+jX=R-jXR2+X2=RR2+X2-j XR2+X2. Ohm Law’s using the conductivity…
Voltage / power
To move an electrical charge in a specific direction you need to apply some force. This force is called by an external electromotive force…
