by Tarun Agarwal 11 years ago IDC – Insulation Displacement Connector Insulation Displacement Connector (IDC) is an electrical connector designed to connect the conductors. They work directly with multi-layer magnet wire coatings while maintaining a high normal force and a low contact resistance. Insulation...
by Tarun Agarwal 11 years ago Temperature Sensors Applications Here we have two practical applications involving circuits to sense the temperature using sensors and gives an electrical output. In both the circuits, we have used an analog circuit. So let us have a brief idea about analog circuits. A...
by Tarun Agarwal 11 years ago Counters – Definition, IC & Application What are Counters? Counters are digital devices whose outputs consist of predefined state according to the application of clock pulses. In other words, counters give output so as to count the number of clock pulses applied to them. Generally...
