Electronics in Practical Life

 Electronics in Practical Life

The first question comes in our mind is what is electronics and why world run behind the electronics. What is the power of electronics and how electronics change our life style with its magical power? In our everyday life, we are surrounded by electronics devices and if I say we can’t stay a single moment without the help of electronics, it will not be probably false now days. Every moment we use electrical and electronic devices to make our life easy. We wake up in the morning by hearing the alarm and go to bed for sleep after watching television or using computer. In our everyday life, we use numerous electrical and electronic devices to make our life easy and perfect. Every moment we use our mobile for numerous purposes which is one of the magic of electronics. So in a body, we can say without the help of electronics our life would be so difficult.





" Electronics is the game of electrons"

So the question that comes in our mind is how does electronics devices work. To understand how different electronic devices works in our everyday life , we need to understand different electronic components by which electronics devices consist of and to understand electronic components working principle we need to know about the material by which this components are made. We will discuss everything step by step in this site.

Before going to discuss about electronic component and devices we would like to give some practical application of electrical and electronic devices that we use in our everyday life.

 Basically electronics do the following things

1.  Rectification: 

 Rectification means electronics converts the bi directional flow (AC ) into unidirectional flow (DC). Using this property we convert AC signal to DC signal and store DC supply in battery and charge batteries ( common example : mobile phone charger )

2. Amplification: 

Amplification means electronics can amplify or enlarge an weak and small signal. Common use of this property in Radio, TV and anywhere where we need to amplify week signal.

3. Conversion: 

Conversion means through the help of electronics we can convert one form of energy into another form. Most popular way of today is convert sunlight to electricity which used electronic devices.

There are numerous applications of electronics. If we see our surround, then we see that everything we use somehow connected to electronics.

Common example of electrical and electronic Devices  

These are the common example of electronic devices that we us in our every day life.

1. Computer2. Mobile3.  TV
4.  Radio
5.  Calculator
6.  Fan
7.  light
8.   Fridge
9.   Air conditioner (AC)
10.   Micro wave Oven
11. Electric heater etc.

DC and AC Response of Resistor, Capacitor and Inductor

DC and AC Response  Resistor, Capacitor and Inductor In our previous section, we discussed the fundamentals of resistor, capacitor and inductor. We also discussed how we measured the resistance of a resistor. Today we will discuss about the identification of resistor, capacitor and inductor using a ohm meter. We know that ohm meter is used to measure the resistance of a resistor. We can also use ohm meter to identify capacitor and inductor. To understand it , we have to understand the AC And DC response of a resistor, capacitor and inductor. Resistor For resistor, DC current and voltage are constant with time. AC current and voltage are also constant and in phase with each other. Capacitor For capacitor, initially when we applied a dc voltage across a capacitor, current is maximum and voltage is minimum and with time current decreases exponentially and voltage increases exponentially. And current leads volgate by   90 degree or voltage lags current by 90 degree.

RC Circuit acts as a Resistor and Capacitor and Common Applications

RC Circuit: When a resistor and a capacitor are connected in series with a ac voltage source, then it is called series RC circuit. It is a first order differential circuit.  In this circuit, the values of R , C and applied voltage are fixed. By varying the frequency of the applied voltage, this RC circuit acts as a resistive circuit and capacitive circuit. Fig : - RC circuit Total impedance of the circuit  Z  = sqr(R 2  + X c 2 ) From the above equation we see that , total impedance of a RC circuit consist of resistance and capacitive reactance. The total impedance changes with frequency. RC circuit acting as a capacitor:  As we know that, Capacitive reactance, X c = 1 / 2πfC,  that is capacitive reactance decrease with increasing signal frequency. So at low frequency, the RC circuit acts as a capacitive circuit, because at low frequency, capacitive reactance will be much much greater than the resistance. And the circuit will act as a capacitor and sh

Identification of resistor, capacitor and inductor using Ohm meter

Identification of resistor, capacitor and inductor using Ohm meter In our previous section, we discussed about the ac and dc response of a resistor, capacitor and inductor. In this section we will discuss, how do we identify resistor, capacitor and inductor using ohmmeter. Before going to discuss, we should kept in mind the following fact. In a circuit, 1. When voltage is maximum, current will be minimum. 2. When current is maximum , voltage will be minimum 3. If resistance is maximum, current will be minimum and voltage will be maximum 4. If resistance is minimum , current will be maximum and voltage will be minimum 5. If resistance increases with time, than, voltage will also increase with time and current will      decrease with time. 6. If resistance decreases with time, voltage will also decrease with time and current will increase   with time 1   Resistor identification using ohm meter As we know that, ohm meter is used to measure and identif
