sent to the operating system then is sent back to your monitor. The functions of an operating system are: booting the computer, managing input and output devices, providing a GUI, managing system resources, and managing data. Booting the computer would be you turning your computer on which starts the operating system. The managing of input and output devices are the operating systems way of making sure things are done in the correct way and do not get mixed up. Operating systems use graphical user

operation, low input current ripple and high-power density. The converter is implemented by a three-phase coupled inductor bridge to remove the bulky input electrolytic capacitors. The introduced active clamp circuit recycles the energy stored in the leakage inductance and absorbs the voltage spikes on the main switch voltage. The series configuration with a voltage doubler at the second side contributes to a high-voltage gain and reduces the voltage stress across the rectifier devices. The output diode reverse-recovery

Theoretical Background A.R.A (Attendance and Room Automation), as the title suggest, this project is about automation. In applying creating this project we, the proponents, aim to integrate multiple devices to produce a system that would automate a room as well as attendance checking. But what is automation? According to Merriam-Webster dictionary, automation is “the technique of making an apparatus, a process, or a system operates automatically. The theory of automation states that “there are three

The MOSFET – Metal Oxide FET As well as the Junction Field Effect Transistor (JFET), there is another type of Field Effect Transistor available whose Gate input is electrically insulated from the main current carrying channel and is therefore called an Insulated Gate Field Effect Transistor or IGFET. The most common type of insulated gate FET which is used in many different types of electronic circuits is called the Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor or MOSFETfor short. The IGFET or MOSFET is

BASIC INPUT OUTPUT SYSTEM [BIOS] Seminar Presented by Milind Chile - 2591 Dipti Borkar - 2778 Freddy Gandhi - 2787 Raghav Shreyas Murthi - 2804 Introduction The BIOS, short for BASIC INPUT OUTPUT SYSTEM is a set of built-in software routines that give a PC its personality. Although, less than 32 kilobytes of code, the BIOS controls many of the most important functions of the PC: how it interprets keystrokes (Ctrl + Alt + Delete), how it puts characters on the screen, and how and at what speed
