Unijunction Transistor – Construction, Working Principle, and Characteristic Features
A Unijunction Transistor (UJT) is a three-terminal semiconductor device. The main characteristics of UJT is when it is triggered, the emitter current increases re-generatively until it is limited by emitter power supply. Due to this characteristic feature, it is used in applications like switching pulse generator, saw-tooth wave generator etc.Construction of UJTThe UJT consists of an n-type silicon semiconductor bar with an electrical on each end. The terminals of these connections are called Base terminals (B1 and B2). Near to base B2, a pn-junction is formed between a p-type emitter and the n-type silicon bar. The terminal of this junction ...
Read MoreDifference between BJT and FET
Both BJTs and FETs are transistors widely used in different types of electronic applications. Go through this article to find out the important features of BJTs and FETs and how they differ from each other in the way they function.What is BJT?BJT stands for Bipolar Junction Transistor. The BJT is the type of transistor in which the current flow is due to two types of charge carriers viz. electrons and holes. A BJT consists of three alternating layers of P-type and N-type semiconductor materials and two P-N junctions.When P-type semiconductor material is sandwiched between two N-type layers, the bipolar junction ...
Read MoreTimers of 8051
In Intel 8051, there are two 16-bit timer registers. These registers are known as Timer0 andTimer1. The timer registers can be used in two modes. These modes areTimer mode and the Counter mode. The only difference between these two modes is the source for incrementing the timer registers. Timer ModeIn the timer mode, the internal machine cycles are counted. So this register is incremented in each machine cycle. So when the clock frequency is 12MHz, then the timer register is incremented in each millisecond. In this mode it ignores the external timer input pin.Counter ModeIn the counter mode, the external events ...
Read MoreExplain the role of the Database Administrator in DBMS?
A database administrator (DBA) is a person or group in charge of implementing DBMS in an organization. The DBA job requires a high degree of technical expertise. DBA consists of a team of people rather than just one person.The primary role of Database administrator is as follows −Database designPerformance issuesDatabase accessibilityCapacity issuesData replicationTable MaintenanceResponsibilities of DBAThe responsibilities of DBA are as follows −Makes the decision concerning the content of the database.Plans the storage structure and access strategy.Provides the support to the users.Defines the security and integrity checks.Interpreter backup and recovery strategies.Monitoring the performance and responding to the changes in the ...

The data that a user enters into multiple pages of a website can be saved using a combination of cookies and sessions. Cookies and sessions are both vitally important since they record the data that the user has provided for a variety of purposes.Cookies and Sessions are used to store information. Cookies are only stored on the client-side machine, while sessions get stored on the client as well as the server.Read through this article to find out more about cookies and sessions and how they are different from each other.What is a Cookie?Cookies are little text-based files that are kept ...
Read MoreInterfacing Stepper Motor with 8051Microcontroller
In this section, we will see how to connect a stepper motor with Intel 8051 Microcontroller. Before discussing the interfacing techniques, we will see what are the stepper motors and how they work.Stepper MotorStepper motors are used to translate electrical pulses into mechanical movements. In some disk drives, dot matrix printers, and some other different places the stepper motors are used. The main advantage of using the stepper motor is the position control. Stepper motors generally have a permanent magnet shaft (rotor), and it is surrounded by a stator. Normal motor shafts can move freely but the stepper motor shafts move ...
Read MoreWhat is Stack Organization?
Stack is also known as the Last In First Out (LIFO) list. It is the most important feature in the CPU. It saves data such that the element stored last is retrieved first. A stack is a memory unit with an address register. This register influence the address for the stack, which is known as Stack Pointer (SP). The stack pointer continually influences the address of the element that is located at the top of the stack.It can insert an element into or delete an element from the stack. The insertion operation is known as push operation and the deletion ...
Read MoreHow to Convert Date to String in TypeScript?
It is common to show the date and time on the web or mobile application. As a user, have you ever seen any application which shows the date object as it is? It will never happen because it makes UX worst. So, we need to convert the date object to a string. After converting the date object to a string, we can format it according to our needs. The date format means ‘yyyy-mm-dd’, ‘dd-mm-yyyy’, etc. Also, we can do the same with the time string. We can display the hours, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds according to the need. In this ...
Read MoreFix ERROR 1064 (42000) while creating a database in MySQL?
The ERROR 1064 (42000) mainly occurs when the syntax isn’t set correctly i.e. error in applying the backtick symbol or while creating a database without them can also create an error, if you will use hyphen in the name, for example, Demo-Table will result in ERROR 1064 (42000).To remove the error, you need to use backtick around the database name properly or use nothing. Following is the syntax wherein we haven’t used the backtick. This works correctly −create database yourDatabaseName;Since adding hyhen to the database name will result in an error. Let us implement it while creating the database name ...
Read MoreWhat is the difference between DFA and NFA?
DFA is the short form for the deterministic finite automata and NFA is for the Non-deterministic finite automata. Now, let us understand in detail about these two finite automata.DFAA Deterministic Finite automata is a five-tuple automata. Following is the definition of DFA −M=(Q, Σ, δ, q0, F)Where, Q : Finite set called states.Σ : Finite set called alphabets.δ : Q × Σ → Q is the transition function.q0 ϵ Q is the start or initial state.F : Final or accept state.NFANFA also has five states same as DFA, but with different transition function, as shown follows −δ: Q X Σ ...
