AI Thread Summary
Converting DC to AC in micro- and nano-scaled electric circuits is not considered a significant problem, as existing technologies like oscillators and H-bridges effectively perform this function. The demand for new devices specifically designed for this conversion in micro- or nano-electronics appears limited. Current solutions are sufficient for the needs of these scaled circuits. Therefore, innovation in this area may not be a priority. Overall, the existing methods adequately address the conversion requirements.

Is there a problem of converting DC to AC in micro- or nano- scaled electric circuits? Is designing a new device that would perform such function in demand in micro- or nano- electronics?

No.
An oscillator, or an H-bridge, does that job well.
 

Thread 'How might electronics be different if AC voltage was 72V at 45 Hz?'

Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?

Thread 'Why does the amperage go real high if there is a low voltage short?'

I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...

Thread 'Electromagnet magnetic field issue'

Hi Guys We are a bunch a mechanical engineers trying to build a simple electromagnet. Our design is based on a very similar magnet. However, our version is about 10 times less magnetic and we are wondering why. Our coil has exactly same length, same number of layers and turns. What is possibly wrong? PIN and bracket are made of iron and are in electrical contact, exactly like the reference design. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. edit: even same wire diameter and coil was wounded by a...
