Understanding Scalar (V/f) Control for Induction Motors
In this article I will try to explain how scalar control algorithm is implemented for controlling induction motor speed with relatively straightforward calculations, and yet achieve a reasonably good linearly variable speed control of the motor. Reports from many top market analysis reveal that induction motors are the most popular when it comes to handling […]
Understanding and Using a Piezo Transducer
In this post we try to investigate what transducers are and how they need to be configured in circuits while using them in a given application Understanding Piezo Transducers A piezo transducer is a device primarily used for converting an applied frequency to audible sound. It may be compared to a loud speaker, the only […]
Understanding Capacitor Codes and Markings
In this article I will comprehensively explain everything regarding how to read and understand capacitor codes and markings through various diagrams and charts. The information can be used for identifying and selecting capacitors correctly for a given circuit application. By Surbhi Prakash Capacitor Codes and associated Markings The various parameters of the capacitors such as […]
Understanding Pull-Up and Pull-Down Resistors with Diagrams and Formulas
In this post I am going to explain pull-Up resistor and pull-down resistor, why they are commonly used in electronic circuits, what happens to electronic circuits without Pull-Up or Pull-down resistor, and How to calculate Pull-Up and Pull-down resistor values and finally we will see about open collector configuration. How Logic Inputs and Outputs Work […]
Understanding PID Controller
The first successful assessment of PID control theory was practically verified in the field of automatic steering systems for ships, way back around the year 1920. After this it was applied in various industrial automatic process controls requiring optimized and accurate manufacturing output specifications. For manufacturing units PID was popularly implemented for achieving precise pneumatic […]
