What Is A Travelling Wave Tube? A travelling wave tube (TWT) is a specialized vacuum tube that is used in electronics to amplify radio frequency (RF) signals in the microwave range. The TWT belongs to a category of ‘’linear beam’’ tubes, such as the Klystron, in which the radio wave is amplified by absorbing power … Read more
PAN( Personal Area Network) PAN stands for Personal Area Network. It is sometimes referred to as Wireless personal Area Network (WPAN). It’s a network covering a very small area, typically a small room. It enables computer devices to communicate with other nearby computers and exchange information and data. Devices in one PAN network can establish … Read more
An image function f(x,y) must be digitized both spatially and in amplitude in order to become suitable for digital processing. Typically, a frame grabber or digitizer is used to sample and quantize the analogue video signal. Therefore, in order to create an image which is digital, we need to convert continuous data into digital form. … Read more
Virtual Memory Virtual memory is a memory management capability of an operating system (OS) that uses hardware and software to allow a computer to compensate for physical memory shortages by temporarily transferring data from random access memory (RAM) to disk storage. In other words, it is the separation of logical memory from physical memory. This … Read more
Bluetooth is a wireless connection standard that allows for exchange of data over short distances. It’s named after the 10th century Danish King Harald Bluetooth, who united Denmark’s tribes into a single kingdom. A new version of Bluetooth standard means various improvements, but only when used with compatible peripherals. Before Bluetooth version 4.2 in 2014, … Read more
The polarity of the electric current created by the welding machine, which runs through the electrode, is either AC or DC. These are the two types of polarity and the welding quality and efficiency depend significantly on the type of current used. AC Welding AC stands for Alternating Current. In an AC electric circuit, the … Read more
In conventional computers, translation of the program or the source code into object/machine code is done by various methods which include assembler, compiler and interpreter. Below are the underlying details of how they differ from one another. What You Need To Know About Assembler An assembler is a program that takes basic computer instruction or … Read more
What Is A Binary Tree? Incomputerscience, a binary tree is a hierarchical data structure in which each node has at most two children generally referred to as left child and the right child. Each node in a binary tree contains three nodes which include pointer to the left sub-tree, and pointer to the right sub-tree … Read more
What Is MIG (Metal Inert Gas) Welding? Metal Inert Gas (MIG) welding is a welding process in which an electric arc forms between a consumable MIG wire electrode and the workpiece metal, which heats the workpiece metal, causing them to melt and join. The wire electrode is wrapped in a wire-pool and is continuously fed … Read more
What Is Cohesion In Software Engineering? In software engineering, cohesion represents the degree to which a part of a code base forms a logically single, atomic unit. It also can be described as the degree to which the elements of a module belong together or the number of connections inside some code unit. If the … Read more
