Hello friends, I hope everything's going well. Today, I am going to share the 13th chapter in the PCB learning series, where we will discuss the single-layer PCB in detail i.e. definition, construction, advantages, manufacturing, applications etc. So let’s try to absorb everything about the single-layer PCB:
Single-layer PCB overview:
Just a quick recall, PCB stands for a printed circuit board having different electrical components connected with the help of pads and tracks of copper foil, incorporated on an insulating material(substrate).
Single-layer PCBs have only one conductive layer of copper. The PCB board itself has a total of 3 layers in single-layer PCB other than the copper layer which are substrate, solder mask, and silkscreen.
In the past, phenolic aldehyde was us ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. Today, I am going to share the 10th chapter in the PCB learning series. So far, we have studied the basics of PCB i.e. What is PCB? Main Types of PCB, techniques to mount components on PCB etc. Now, we are ready to have a look at the complete PCB Fabrication Process.
So, in today's tutorial, I am going to share a detailed guide on PCB Fabrication Process. We will discuss everything related to it i.e. How PCB boards are manufactured? Which material is used to fabricate printed circuit boards? etc. But before starting the Fabrication PRocess, we first have to understand a few terms/features. So, let's get started:
PCB of DVD player:
RoHS-compliant P ...
Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing great. Today, we are going to share the 9th chapter in the PCB learning series, where we will have a look at the difference between Through-hole and Surface-mount technology.In our previous lectures, we studied both THT and SMT methods separately and have seen that both are used for components mounting on the PCB board. So, today, we will have a look at the difference between the two techniques. So, let's get started without wasting any time.
Through-Hole vs Surface-Mount
Let us know have a look at these differences and get to know the way forward when it comes to the process of component selection whether SMT or DIP.
Definition - THT vs SMT
THT stands for through-hole technology.
In Through-hole technology, components are mounted by ...
PWM stands for Pulse-Width Modulation. Once the switching frequency (fsw) has been chosen, the ratio between the switch-on time (TON) and the switch-off time (TOFF) is varied. This is commonly called duty-cycle (D). The duty cycle can be between 0 and 1 and is generally expressed as a percentage (%).
D = TON / (TON + TOFF) = TON x fsw
The variation of the pulse width, made at a high frequency (kHz), is perceived as continuous and can be translated into a variation of the rotation speed of a motor, dimming a LED, driving an encoder, driving power conversion, and etc. The use of PWM is also widely used in the automotive sector in electronic control units (ECU - Electronic Control Unit) to manage the energy to be supplied to some actuators, both fix ...
Hello readers, I hope you all are doing great. Welcome to Section 5 of the ESP32 Programming Series. In this section, we are going to interface different Embedded Sensors with the ESP32 Microcontroller Board. ESP32 development board is featured with some inbuilt sensors(i.e. hall effect sensor, capacitive touch sensor) so, in the initial tutorials of this section, we will explore these built-in ESP32 sensors and in the later lectures, we will interface third-party sensors with the ESP32.
In today's lecture, we will discuss the working/operation of the ESP32 built-in Hall Effect Sensor. Hall Effect sensor is used to detect the variation in the magnetic field of its surroundings. So, let's first understand What's Hall Effect:
What is the Hall Effect?
The Hall Effect phenomenon was fir ...
In the highly competitive world of electronics, it has become obvious for leading companies to stick to the adhere standards of quality and consistency. Hence, many times companies and organizations prefer to adopt globally known standards to maintain singularity and high quality within the organization. Because IPC is considered the gold of all standards, many companies and organizations tend to follow it. For that very same reason, companies always prefer employees who demonstrate his/her ability to deliver as per IPC standards. It is vital to becoming an established professional in the field of electronics assembly and quality inspection to find a suitable job in the field of the electronics manufacturing industry. What could be the better way t ...
Hello readers, hope you all are doing great. This is our 3rd tutorial in the ESP32 programming series. In our previous tutorial, we discussed the ESP32 Web server, where we created the ESP32 web server in STA mode.
ESP32 can be operated as an access point (AP) or a Wi-Fi station (STA mode). So, in this tutorial, we will create an ESP32 web server in access point (AP) mode. Here's the video demonstration of ESP32 WebServer in Access Point Mode:
As I mentioned above, in our 2nd tutorial, we already discussed the basics of the ESP32 web server. So, in this tutorial, we will only discuss how to create the ESP32 in access point mode.
For detailed information about the basics of the ESP32 web server and how client-server communication takes place, fol ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. In today's tutorial, we will have a look at the 5 Ways to Prevent Your Car from Being Stolen. Every year over 720,000 motor vehicles are stolen, according to the official site of the United States government. Thieves have gotten savvy, using technology and new methods to make stealing cars easier than ever. It is crucial to take steps to protect your vehicle from being stolen. Here are five ways to do just that:
Install a Security System
A good security system includes an alarm, immobilizer, and battery backup if you lose power to your car for any reason. It should have a remote lock/unlock capability which can be helpful if someone finds or steals your keys ...
The most in-style web of Things (IoT) devices vary from wearable technical schools to exotic home appliances. Our advanced algorithms monitor and shield over one billion devices, which needs us to exactly establish the categories, models, and configurations of active devices. These device intelligence algorithms are the rationale behind the us having a number of the foremost precise information regarding the important quality of IoT products. The percentages provided here represent the recognition of IoT products among all connected devices, together with good phones and computers, to administer readers a clearer read of the important scale IoT devices have within the online shopper scheme. the 2 dominant device classes – computers and good phones – together compose around sixty-two of al ...
In our previous article, we grasp knowledge about real-life examples of the Internet of things. Now in this article, we try to elaborate on real-life applications of the Internet of things. Now a question may arise in your mind what’s the difference between the application of the Internet of things and examples of the Internet of things. I would be happy if you may elaborate on your question in addition. Simply associate degree example shows how applications are also created. Like there are several functionalities on the market in terms of arthropod genus and strategies however with examples it might be additional clear.
