IC 4025 Datasheet, Pinout Working, Application
The CD4025 is a CMOS IC that contains three independent NOR gates, each with three inputs and one output. The device is designed for use as a digital buffer or inverter in high-noise environments due to its high noise immunity. Electrical Characteristics: Pinout Configuration The pinout configuration of the IC 4025 are as I have […]
IC 4026 Datasheet, Pinout Working, Application
IC 4026 is comprised of a 5-stage Johnson decade counter and an output decoder that transforms the Johnson code into a 7-segment decoded output to drive a single 7 segment numerical display. These devices offer significant advantages in display applications that prioritize low power dissipation and/or low package count. Both sides of IC 4026 have […]
Inductor Working and Designing, with Formulas
In this post I have explained all the basics of inductors, its working principle, and how to design inductors with the help of formulas and calculations. Inductors are vastly used from mobile, laptop chargers to high-end communication equipment like mobile base stations to the satellites orbiting the earth. Let us take a deep dive into […]
What is IGBT: Working, Switching Characteristics, SOA, Gate Resistor, Formulas
IGBT stands for Insulated-gate-Bipolar-Transistor, a power semiconductor which includes the features of a MOSFET’s high speed, voltage dependent gate switching, and the minimal ON resistance (low saturation voltage) properties of a BJT. Figure 1 exhibits IGBT equivalent circuit, where a bipolar transistor works with a MOS gate architect, while the similar IGBT circuit is actually […]
Neon Lamps – Working and Application Circuits
A neon lamp is a glow lamp made up of a glass cover, fixed with a pair of segregated electrodes and containing an inert gas (neon or argon). The main application of a neon lamp is in the form of indicator lamps or pilot lamps. When supplied with a low voltage, the resistance between the […]
