Hi, Thanks so much for the reply and...I think I may understand but I just want to check. I drew a tangent on the curve at that point, the took the difference in y (Ids) and divided it by x (Vds) and divided it into 1. It gave me a close answer, it also gave me a close answer to some other...

It sounds like it, assuming it's a sine wave take your amplitude and divide it by the square root of 2.

Inverse curves related to JFET characteristics, help! Hi, This is an example given in a lesson which is closely related to a coursework question I'm trying to complete, the problem is I can't understand how they have got the results they have. Here is the statement giving the relationship...

Hi Sylvia, That is my question really, I have set up these simple on the circuit simulator and observed that arrangement of the load and DC voltage source doesn't matter to the current in the circuit. However when I tried to replicate the PNP circuit shown using a bench power supply unit (the...

I've attached some examples of the circuits on the circuit simulator, when I wired the circuit in reality I used a inductive proximity so the base was obviously driven in a different way. Thanks for your answers Kyle

Hello, I've been playing with transistors on a circuit simulator and found that it doesn't matter on an NPN transistor whether I put the load on the collector or emitter side, the load still has the same current flowing through it. The same is true for the PNP transistor, however when I...

Residual flux ? I'm not sure about that, fields collapse pretty fast. Usually residual charge is left in the capacitors and it takes time for them to discharge. That's from a practical point of view though when I'm working on circuits, I'm not sure what your equation says.

I have been given a formula Kne = \frac{1}{4Td}(CZo+\frac{L}{Zo}) I've been given C as 10pF and L as 80nH and Zo as 70.7. I have calculated Td from the formula propogation velocity = 1/\sqrt{LC} and the line capacitance and inductance are 400nH and 80pF and then divided this into 0.05m the line...

I am doing a laplace transform as part of a coursework assignment. I have some example transpositions that are relevant to the question I am answering but I can't see how the author has got from one arrangement to the next. [b]2. Homework Equations He has given 1/(s^2(τs+1)) =...

I have an endothermic gas generator which maintains a heat of 850 °C while not generating endothermic gas. The generator maintains it's temperature through a burner control system, however coolant still runs through a water jacket around the outlet pipe (which in this state has no gas running...

Thank you so much. I think I was mis understanding that the voltage drop stated was the same as the voltage shown across, when that twigged today I got it, what a feeling :) Thank you for your help and time :)

I have a diode with a resistor in parallel(R2), but also diode resistor circuit has a resistor in series with it(R1). I have uploaded a drawing as well but I think it takes a bit of time for them to be authorised. The values of the circuit are Vs = 20v R1 = 3kΩ R2 = 470Ω Diode = Has a Volt drop...

I've been trying all week but what I can't understand is that as [sin][/-1](0) is always 0 then any value I put in between 0 and 2∏ I get that value as an x intercept, where am I getting confused ?

that's the key to the door, thankyou :)

sorry, i didn't have my calculator in radian mode. Still I don't understand how I get the values of the x intercepts mathamatically in the same way as you do with polynomial expressions ?
