This guide covers Parallel RC Circuit Analysis, Phasor Diagram, Impedance & Power Triangle, and several solved examples along with the review questions answers. This guide covers The combination of a resistor and capacitor connected in parallel to an AC source, as illustrated in Figure 1, is called a parallel RC circuit. The conditions that exist in RC parallel circuits and the …

Data analytics makes it easier for business users to interact, share and collaborate with data—which is the very essence of data literacy—regardless of where or how they work. Nish Patel, senior director, Qlik, discusses how data analytics can help optimise work and improve employee efficiency, in an interaction with Deepshikha Shukla. Q. Why are data […]
Safety is a major concern when it comes to powerful electric feeders (DC charging stations) or charging stations near petrol pumps or other flammables. The push to increase customer base of electric vehicles (EVs) is evident from various initiatives being taken worldwide. For example, the UK’s Road to Zero campaign, which aims to end the […]
“Ting-Ting-Ting” – We are all familiar with that sound of school bell which rang before morning assembly, lunch break and at the end of the day. These bells are often operated manually. There are some electronic bells available out there in the market but their setup is quite expensive. So, let’s make a low-cost prototype […]
Innovative and greener products are the need of the hour for monitoring the environment and tackling climate change. Miniaturised environmental sensors like gas, chemical and biosensors help in remote sensing of the environment. Technology for environmental monitoring is constantly advancing to improve data collection for regulatory uses. Next-generation compliance utilises new tools, technologies and approaches […]
Researchers are developing cyber solutions to defeat enemy drone swarm attacks. These solutions contain a multi-spectral sensor system that detects and characterises drone swarms. Using cyber electromagnetic activity, swarms are disabled so that life threat to native war fighters and citizens is avoided. A drone swarm is a mass of tiny drones flying like a […]
An Android phone allows itself to be locked/unlocked using a password, pattern on a grid of nine dots, fingerprint or facial recognition. An Android phone using a password needs a sequence of four digits or numbers to unlock the screen. This article describes the design, testing and working of the smartphone screen lock/unlock application using […]
In the last few years, performance of organic solar cells has significantly improved. Further improvements are needed for the further development of organic photovoltaic cells. This article reviews the basic working principle, commercialisation and the fate of organic solar cells. Importance of high power conversion efficiency models for organic solar cells and the future development […]
This video demonstrates calculating the maximum power output from a solar panel and discusses determining the optimum resistive load for a solar panel. Video Courtesy: ScienceOnline
Sometimes, after rains, the air feels moist. The water seems to have suspended in the air. However, in certain AC’s you click some buttons and the atmosphere brightens up. How and why does it all happen? Moisture forms up in the air, resulting in humidity. However, the humidity sensor in your AC picks it up […]
The Internet of Things (IoT) is being widely used in industrial and commercial applications. This article describes how to monitor things or devices connected to WeMos D1 board, which acts as a Web server. Pin description of WeMos D1 board is shown in Fig. 1. Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) in the IoT works as a […]
Large-scale convergence, or LSC, is not just about the convergence of different technologies. It is about developing a comprehensive framework that will enable delivering of services as per the requirement of various applications. 5G is about many things. And the intrinsic nature of everything is that there will always be scaling up, whether it is […]
Electronics is at the heart of all modern warfare systems and, presently, the country is at the cusp of transforming the import bill in electronics that is fast competing to surpass the oil bill, presenting an opportunity for Indian companies. India with the second largest armed forces in the world is identified as the seventh […]
Many believe that the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence or automation will solve their problems for good, only to find themselves in a differently flavoured soup post-implementation. Read on to find out why this happens. Once upon a time… Once upon a time (read as several years ago), while I was working with a home […]
Presented here is a simple filtering and polarity reverse protection guard for AC/DC power adaptors. Wall adaptors have many advantages because these are low-cost, have a wide range of output voltages and currents, are easily available, come with input and output cables of different fixed lengths and so on. But these have some disadvantages, too, […]
