Introduction Electric circuit and electrical symbols are important to understand to design any electrical or electronic instrument. The branch of physics that deals with the behavior of electrons using electronic circuits are called electronics. The components used in the electronic circuits are active devices and this is the difference between classical electrical engineering and electronics. Electronics has many branches. Vacuum tubes play a vital role in the electronics field. It is the first and basic of electronics that is used to control the movement of electrons. Then IBM transistors take the place of vacuum tubes. Due to some ... Read More

Introduction The network in simple words known as a circuit. Electrical parts are linked together to form a network. Electrical networks are often constructed to exchange energy between various constituents. These electrical networks can be built using capacitors, inductors, resistors, or a mix of these components. By utilizing the methodologies available at hand, network analysis is the process of determining the voltage response or the current response for any member within the network. What is Network Analysis? Simply, Network Analysis is a sub-sector or component of Electronics and Electrical Engineering. The connectivity of the electrical components is the core ... Read More

Let's start this article with a basic overview of flip-flops before moving onto discuss how they can be used as a divider circuit. What is a Flip-Flop? In digital electronics, a flip-flop (FF) is a sequential logic circuit which is used for storing 1-bit of information. As we know, in digital systems, information is represented in binary form, i.e. in terms of 0 and 1. Where, a binary 0 and a binary 1 is referred to as a bit. A flip-flop is a 1-bit memory cell that stores information in terms of 0 or 1. Therefore, flipflop is the fundamental ... Read More

A multiplexer (MUX) is a digital combinational logic circuit that accepts multiple data inputs and allows only one of them at a time to transmit over an output channel. A multiplexer consists of 2n input lines, n select lines, and one output line. In a multiplexer, the routing of the desired data input to the output channel is done by the logic level applied to the select lines. The functional block diagram of a multiplexer is shown in Figure-1. This article is primarily meant for explaining the design procedure of different types of multiplexer circuits. More specifically, here we ... Read More

Read this article to learn how you can use a multiplexer to realize universal logic gates. Let us start with a brief introduction to multiplexers and universal logic gates. What is a Multiplexer? A Multiplexer or MUX or Data Selector is a combinational logic circuit which accepts several data inputs and allows only one of them at a time to pass through the output channel. The block diagram of a multiplexer is shown in Figure-1. A multiplexer consists 2n data input lines, n select lines, and only one output line. The logic level applied to the select lines determine ... Read More

Introduction Bridge Rectifier convers AC input into DC output. The rectification process is done by the junction diodes which are forward biased. When a junction diode is forward biased, it admits the current to flow through it. This application of junction diodes is mainly used in rectification. The Wheatstone Bridge system is used in Bridge rectifiers. Bridge rectifiers are also called Wave bridge rectifiers. It rectifies the waves also. Half-wave rectifiers and Full-wave rectifiers are examples of bridge rectifiers. There are many types of rectifiers but the Bridge rectifier is the more effective. Bridge Rectifiers Definition Bridge rectifiers effectively ... Read More

Modulation is required to convey signals from one medium to another. These mediums might be physical or through any other medium. The two most common modulations that exist and are utilized by humans are analog modulation and digital modulation. Many individuals favor this digital modulation because of its security and speed. The distinction between analog and digital modulation is that analog modulation is a continuous signal, but digital modulation may be modified over time. Digital modulation, on the other hand, is a discrete signal that can only convey binary information. The sine wave is the wave utilized in analog modulation. ... Read More

The magnetomotive force is analogous to the electromotive force in an electric circuit. If an electric circuit's electrons are being propelled by an electromotive force (EMF), then the magnetic flux or field lines are being propelled by a magnetic field force (MMF). What is Electromotive Force? The passage of electrons in an electrical circuit is propelled by electromotive force (EMF). The presence of an electrical charge creates a field surrounding it, which may either attract or repulsion other charged particles. A potential difference is produced when enough of these charged particles are separated. Electromotive force is the difference in ... Read More

A subtractor is a combinational logic circuit that can perform the subtraction of two numbers (or binary numbers) and produce the difference between them. It is a combinational logic circuit. Therefore, the output of the subtractor depends only on its present inputs. There are two types of subtractors namely, Half Subtractor Full Subtractor Read this tutorial to find out how you can realize a full subtractor using half subtractors. For the implementation of a full subtractor, we require two half subtractors. Let's start with a brief overview of half and full subtractors. What is a Half Subtractor? A ... Read More

A circuit is a type of network having a closed path for the flow of either electric current or magnetic flux. A circuit mainly consists of three major parts viz. source, path or conductor and load. In simple words, the term circuit can be used to represent any fixed path through which electricity, data, single or magnetic flux can flow.Depending on the type of quantity (electric current or magnetic flux), the circuits can be of two types as −Electric circuitMagnetic circuitIn this article, we are going to see the differences between electric circuit and magnetic circuit. Also, we have added ... Read More
