Ideal Transformer

The ideal transformer is an electromagnetic device that allows to increase or decrease the alternating voltage and current while maintaining constant the power

The unit of measurement used in the electricity bill is the kWh, however in the electrical or electronic products that we buy in stores, the unit of electricity consumption is given in watts or kilowatts.

Power Factor Definition

Power factor is the ratio between the energy that is converted into work and the electrical energy consumed in a circuit or device

The Core-laminated Transformer – Why is a Transformer Core-laminated?

Why it is not possible to use a solid iron core instead of core-laminated? What is Eddy or Foucault’s currents?

The half-wave rectifier rectification process.

Polarization of semiconductor diode in the forward and in the reverse direction. Input and output waveforms

Push – Pull Amplifier

A Push – Pull amplifier is called that way, because it uses 2 groups of transistors and only one works at a time. One group pushes in one direction while the other pulls in another direction. Each group is responsible for amplifying a single phase of the input wave.

Parallel RC circuit

Voltage, Currents, Phasor diagram & Impedance. Voltage is the same on the capacitor and resistor. Current is ahead of the voltage in the capacitor

Basic structure of the sinusoidal oscillator

The sinusoidal oscillator basic structure consists of an amplifier (A) and a selective frequency network (ß) connected in a positive feedback loop

The series RC circuit.

In a series RC circuit, the current through the resistor and the capacitor is the same. The voltage VS is equal to the phasor addition of the voltage drop across the resistor (Vr) and the voltage drop across the capacitor (Vc).

Air core inductor coil inductance calculation

There are some occasions when we have an air core inductor, and we don’t know what its value is. There is an easy way to obtain the air core inductor coil inductance if you have the external measurements of this component.

The Electric Power Transformer usage – The Transformer Distribution System

Electric power transformers are static electrical machines that allows modification of the voltage and the current values, so they can take the appropriate one (value) to carry and distribute the electric energy.

What is Alternating Current?

The difference between an alternating current and a continuous current is that the continuous current flows only on one direction. The alternating current circulates first in one direction and then on the opposite one, repeating this process continuously.
