What is Clipper Circuit? - Definition and Classification Clipper Circuit is one which controls the shape of the waveform by removing or "clipping" off an unwanted portion. A half-wave rectifier…
Varistors or Voltage Dependent Resistors (VDRS): Varistors, also called the voltage dependent resistors (VDRs), show a high degree of nonlinearity between their resistance value and the applied voltage. They are…
Point Contact Diode Construction and Working: The point contact diode is basically constructed by touching a metallic whisker to an exposed surface of an N-type semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor used…
Motor Protection: Motor Protection - There is a wide range of motors in existence for various purposes. However, the fundamental problems affecting the choice of protection are independent of the…
Operation of Synchronous Motor: Operation of Synchronous Motor - For any speed other than synchronous speed, the relative speed between air gap flux wave and the rotor is not zero.…
Rectifier Control of DC Series Motor: Single-phase controlled Rectifier Control of DC Series Motor are employed in traction. A single-phase half-controlled Rectifier Control of DC Series Motor is shown in…
Transient Analysis of DC Motor: Starting, braking, reversing speed changing and load changing are the Transient Analysis of DC Motor which commonly occur in an industrial drive. One is interested…
Phase Locked Loop Control(PLL): A PI controller ideally should provide perfect speed regulation. However, due to imperfections in sensing and control circuits, the closed-loop schemes described earlier can at best…
