...ANGELICA A. KANG BS EcE I-1 ACTIVITY 9 Mixture – is a combination of two substances in such a way that no chemical reaction occurs between the components and you can separate them again. A mixture is a material system made up of two or more different substances which are mixed but are not combined chemically. The substances in a mixture can be separated using physical methods such as filtration, freezing, and distillation. Examples of Mixtures sand and water salt and water sugar and salt ------------------------------------------------- Elements are chemically the simplest substances and hence cannot be broken down using chemical methods. Elements can only be changed into other elements using nuclear methods. An element is a type of matter composed of atoms that all have exactly the same positive charge on their nuclei. In other words, all atoms of an element have the same ------------------------------------------------- Examples of Elements ------------------------------------------------- aluminum, selenium, zinc, magnesium, carbon, mercury, gold, arsenic, lead and sodium. ------------------------------------------------- Compound is a chemical species that is formed when two or more atoms join together chemically, with covalent or ionic bonds.

...introducing various kinds of distortion. This is why you cannot turn the volume on an amplifier all the way up to the maximum value because even small input signals will be reduced to unintelligible hash. Amplifier Circuit [pic] Amplifier Signal Block [pic] Example of schematic Diagram [pic] Devices/Components in an amplifier [pic] Define the following: Signal - A signal as referred to in communication systems, signal processing, and electrical engineering "is a function that conveys information about the behavior or attributes of some phenomenon". In the physical world, any quantity exhibiting variation in time or variation in space (such as an image) is potentially a signal that might provide information on the status of a physical system, or convey a message between observers, among other possibilities. The IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing states that the term "signal" includes audio, video, speech, image, communication, geophysical, sonar, radar, medical and musical signals. Amplifier - An amplifier is an electronic device that increases the voltage, current, or power of a signal. Amplifiers are used in wireless communications and broadcasting, and in audio equipment of all kinds. They can be categorized as either weak-signal amplifiers or power amplifiers. Cut-off - is a state of negligible conduction that is...

...ESE 215 Introduction to Circuits and Systems Prepared by: The Task Group on ESE 215-205 N. Farhat, N. Engheta, J. Keenan, and V. Vuchic Background, Philosophy, and Motivation: Over the past few decades, the scope of electrical engineering (ESE in the context of our department) has expanded to a degree where the discipline risks effacement by diffusion [1]. This calls for hard thinking on how to reform traditional course offerings in our discipline in order to avoid incoherent bifurcations forced from the outside and to preserve its identity in view of profound changes taking place. We are not alone. Similar reforms are being discussed in physics education [2]. We as a relatively newly formed department of Electrical and Systems Engineering have had a head start in thinking about this issue recognizing that the challenge is to forge something better than the sum of its parts. This draft proposal is an attempt at reforming the present introductory Circuits and Systems course in our curriculum in order to partly meet this challenge. We have changed the course title to indicate that it will deal with “circuits and systems” concepts in a broader sense than the traditional electrical circuits alone. Our goal is that the course encompass electrical, optical (plasmonic), mechanical, fluidic, biological, neural, transportation, chemical, and ecological “circuits” and systems. Biochemical logic circuits using DNA-binding proteins, and bistable gene-regulatory...

...Dependence of computers Nowadays, computer has become our daily electronic machine, which is vital to our work and life. Responding to the topic, dependence on computer, I think we can't tell exactly it is good or bad, as advantages and disadvantages are both involved. First of all, we must admit that computer helps us to save time. In the past decades, sending letter is a common way for people to contact others; it took a day or few days to receive the letters. In the modern world, people can use e-mail instead of letters, and it only takes a few minutes. Computers are especially welcomed by companies. To image that, if a company in an environment without computers, it uses telephone to communicate with clients, sends and receives documents via letters, how much time will it take? How inefficient it is for a company! But with computers, companies can scan the documents to computers, and then send to the clients via e-mail, this only takes a few minutes! Besides, computers can help people to search information in an easier and effective way, and do other things. Depending on computer helps us save our time and convenience, however, danger also be included: hackers may hack into others’ computers, stealing information and data, or damaging computer systems; these problems bring losses to people, and need to take time to fix the problems. Furthermore, modern education also has dependence on computers, students doing their homework, school projects, vision, searching information...

...System Analysis and Design Tony Eary October 20, 2012 Ibrahim Elhag– Instructor Strayer University Inventory Management Systems The necessary equipment for creating a low-cost automated inventory system would be a Rockwell Automation Printed Circuit Board, Wireless Antennas Cable with Circuit Board, Microcontroller Unit PIC18F4550, Handheld MC9190 G-Mobile Computer, and IR Remote Toggle Switch Kit, Bar Codes, and Personal Computer. The system I would want to create would be automated and run off wireless and IR signals where there will be some manual check, but the automated would be in place and manual is just to double-check on the automated system. There can be a lag in automated systems so there would be the need for manual checking in case the automated isn’t up to date because the last thing anyone wants is to be without what’s needed and then have to order it. The customer wouldn’t be happy and makes the business look bad at the same time. There will be an automated inventory system comprising of at least one bin configured to contain a plurality of stocked items, a platform configured to support the bin, a wireless circuit associated with each said platform and a wireless reader device having at least one microcontroller unit. The wireless reader device may be configured to read a wireless signal transmitted by the wireless circuit upon completion of printed circuit board. The printed circuit board includes a switch configured to selectively complete...

...Comparator A comparator is a circuit that accepts two voltages, V1 and V2 and outputs zero volts if V1 > V2 or outputs a positive voltage level if V2 > V1. Comparators can be built from operational amplifiers. In laments term, a comparator is the simplest circuit that moves signals between the analog and digital worlds… Simply put, a comparator compares two analog signals and produces a one bit digital signal. This is the symbol for a comparator * The comparator output satisfies the following rules: * When V+ is larger than V- the output bit is 1. * When V+ is smaller than V- the output bit is 0 A prime example of a simple comparator circuit can be found within a programmable thermostat. With two separate inputs, three outcomes are achievable at any given time. When the base input becomes lower than the variable, a signal will be sent to the thermostat to activate the cooling feature, and that circuitry will allow that function to occur until both the base and variable are once again equal. At that point, the air conditioner would shut off until further instructions were provided. If the variable electrical node provided less electrical power than the constant, a signal would be generated to inform the thermostat to activate the heating element. It would remain on until the variables changed once again. Each of these functions are pre-programmed to react differently as the values change, and the comparator circuit design interprets them by...

...deciding its future as her husband, who has created the company in 1961, has recently passed away. Maggie’s decision was to take place in regards to the dire situation of the company given the implosion of the high-tech industry, as most companies have reported 50 to 75 percent declines in quarterly revenue compared to the prior year. By this time, the company was focused on the mid-complexity mid-volume (mid-range segment) printed circuit boards due to the collapse in demand of the low-range segment in 1995, which resulted from electronic manufacturers moving their business to Asian fabricators, and possibly the downfall of the Atari cartridges market as the time. The issue –that Maggie Adams must address- at hand began in 2001 as the total US electronic equipment orders entered a very turbulent time, which in turn plunged the sales for printed circuit boards given that the demand for these boards is positively correlated to the orders of electronic equipment ordered. Furthermore, in the midst of the technology recession in 2001, many of the larger companies must have shifted their manufacturing to China, as they chased lower-cost products that will help sustain their businesses amid the harder times. Another issue, albeit on a smaller scale, is that CBC’s management team is led by Maggie herself, a 62 year old woman with absolutely no management skills nor the long-life expertise to become a successful chairman, as her husband once was. Furthermore, Maggie’s son and daughter...
