    Equipment to use a stripboard?

    I will apologize in advance for the simplistic nature of my question. I did some electrical engineering many years ago but specialized down a different path and as such, have not done any EE in nearly five years. I've recently wanted to begin doing some amateur EE however, but creating more...

    Quick questions about logic gates (Nand, nor, etc)

    So recently just in my spare times I've found an interest in logic gates such as the nand gates and nor gates and such and although most of it's logic, there's one thing i just couldn't figure out. Let's say you have a nand gate configuration consisting of two pmos and two nmos transistors as...

    Why is the autocorrelation equal to the expected value?

    Homework Statement This isn't really a homework question as much as something that I just couldn't figure out. I just noticed in an exam I was working on that they at one point converted the expected value of a signal multipled by itself to the crosscorelation of the signal at l = 0, and a...

    Generate .vcd File for Verilog w/ GTKwave

    Nevermind figured it out, didn't realize the vcp file wouldn't be dumped until I actually run the output from the first simulation. I feel stupid now ^^

    Generate .vcd File for Verilog w/ GTKwave

    Hey guys, I've recently started poking around with verilog code and I've made a few programs now and I really want to get a .vcd file or something similar out of my programs so that I can use gtkwave to analyze the program flow. The thing is, no matter what I do, no .vcd file is generated...

    Tossing an item up a slope, calculating it's length from start to landing

    Homework Statement Right so I have the following scenario: An archer shoots an arrow upward a slope of angle \alpha, the angle between the arrows trajectory and the horizontal plane is denoted \theta The arrows speed in the direction in which it is fired is denoted V_0 as shown in this...

    Undamped oscillisation and archimedes law problem

    I'm sorry for my bad wording, I'm quite aware that the mass displaced by the buoy is not the same as the weight of the buoy itself. I ment of course the weight of the water equals the force on the buoy after it's been descended. I had to laugh at myself for making such a silly mistake, I used...

    Undamped oscillisation and archimedes law problem

    Homework Statement The archimedean principle states that the bouyancy force equals the weight of the water displaced by the body (partly or totally submerged). So We have a buoy of diameter 60 cm which is floating in water with its axis vertical. When depressed downwards in the water and...

    Engineering Small-signal equivalent circuit models - How?

    Ah yes, I do understand that. I'm just asking, really; When creating the small-signal equivalent model - Every node connected to ground in the original circuit needs to be connected to ground in the small-signal model, as well as to the same resistances/voltage supplies they were in the original...

    Engineering Small-signal equivalent circuit models - How?

    Hmm, alright then. So I just need to make sure all nodes connected to one terminal AND ground is also connected to the same terminal and ground in the small-signal equivalent? I'm fairly sure I got it now, your help is extremely appreciated at this moment.

    Engineering Small-signal equivalent circuit models - How?

    Wow, that's some really helpful information, and I learned some extra's! Thanks to both of you! I think I understand how I'm supposed to design the small-signal equivalent circuit now. I can draw up the terminals source - drain and gate, fill in the voltage controlled current source between...

    Engineering Small-signal equivalent circuit models - How?

    Okay I've been trying really hard to figure this out and I think I understand now - There's just one question remaining really; When designing the small-signal equivalent circuit - How do I know which of the ports Drain, Source and Gate to chose as ground? It's pretty obvious from the upper...

    Engineering Small-signal equivalent circuit models - How?

    [SOLVED] Small-signal equivalent circuit models - How? Basically I've got an exam in circuitry this thursday and I've noticed that every single exam has one of these amplifier circuit excercises in them where the first part is usually finding the small-signal equivalent of said model and the...

    Another NMOS-transistor problem

    Aha, I see now, of course. Thanks! I managed to solve it now by using four different equations, was quite a hustle but I've never figured it out if not for this! Thanks again!

    An extremely easy question about NMOS

    The modes of operations are as you said the cutoff-region, Triode-region and the Saturation-region. ^^
