I'm in the process of applying for jobs as a recent graduate( December 2020 ) and was curious what types of projects I could work on by myself to showcase my capabilities in Power Distribution Engineering (simulations, design work etc.). I was thinking I could build a presentation around it...

how does work as an EIT differ from that of a regular entry level engineer with a bachelors? sorry if I'm moving this thread in a different direction than one I intended from the OP.

Is experience gained from a group of PEs as opposed to a single PE cumulative? If I have to work for 4-5 years gaining experience, and I work under John Doe for 3 years and Jane Doe for 1-2 more years does this count as 4-5 years of experience under a PE? And how does experience transfer, let's...

I studied electrical engineering and enjoyed power and controls more than other subjects but I’d like to keep preparing for a job in that field and completed the FE so i can, one day, get my PE license in that area. What can i do to keep myself sharp and learn new, valuable things while i...

I believe for: $$F = [A+B+C] + [AB] + [ABC]$$ would map accordingly $$\begin{array} {c|c|c|c|} & B'C' & B'C & BC & BC' \\ \hline A' & 0 & & & \\ \hline A & & & 1 & 1 \\ \hline \end{array}$$ Where each 1 and the 0 is grouped only by itself to produce the three terms given in the function. I...

absolutely! should I plot this function on a k-map?

I simplified the given function into a single minterm and a single maxterm F(A,B,C,D) = ABC + (A + B + C) + AB F(A,B,C,D) = AB(C+1) + (A+B+C) F(A,B,C,D) = AB(1) + (A+B+C) F(A,B,C,D) = AB + (A+B+C) The only terms that involve a logical AND operation are AB as (A+B+C) is a maxterm of the...

the errata for a study guide I'm using to prepare for the Fundamentals of Engineering Exam didn't include this correction and was issued in 2017 so I decided to ask here. The solution I included corresponded to the problem I posted in the study guide, I'm not sure what happened with the...

I obtained the following result: ([(A xor B) xor 0]* AC)' ([(A'B + AB') xor (0)]*AC)' [([A'B + AB']*(0)' + 0)*AC)]' [(A'B + AB')*(1)*(AC)]' [A'ABC + AB'AC]' [AB'C]' A'+B+C' the solution to this problem is getting a different answer, I don't know why this solution isn't inverting the output AB'C

any luck? I think the solution is making a mistake.

No, we haven't covered that yet

Step 1: I first started by reducing the inside of the block diagram of picture "bd" (the portion with G1 and the negative feedback G2) I obtained G1/[1 + G1G2] I'll call this term "F" Step 2: Then I'm left with two terms feeding into a summing point: F - G3 I'll call this term "K" I can...

##g_m = \mu_n C{ox} \frac{W}{L}V_{OV}## ##g_m## = sqrt(2kn')*sqrt(W/L)*sqrt(ID) ##g_m## = 2ID/VOV these are the ones I was looking for earlier.

##V_t## = ##V_t##0 + ##\gamma##[sqrt(2##\phi_f## + VSB) - sqrt(2##\phi_f##)] I mostly forgot everything I learned about the body effect, so i'll have to read it over again as it was in a previous chapter I haven't seen in years. vBS = vB - vS = 0 vOV = VBS - Vth = -Vth This doesn't seem to make...

This problem was included as an exercise for a section on the small signal equivalent circuit for a MOSFET under the body effect. The problem states ##λ =0## so I believe the Early effect is negligible and ro = 0. I don't see how the body effect would be negated so for part (b). I believe the...
