In a number of process control problems, we may have more measurements (controlled variables) than manipulated variables. Hence, it is…
A soft-core processor is a microprocessor core that can be implemented entirely using digital logic synthesis. It is typically created…
We have a number of control theories that have been put forward on how to design control laws to accomplish…
We have four key types of radiation, namely: alpha, beta, gamma and neutron. The four types differ in mass, energy…
When light strikes a semiconductor p-n junction, its energy is absorbed by electrons. Electrons and holes generated by light in…
Gamma spectroscopy is a radiochemistry measurement technique that determines the energy and count rate of gamma rays emitted by radioactive…
In a process plant, we typically have a number of control goals that require different algorithms and types of information…
Permanent magnet dc motors employ a permanent magnet instead of stationary field winding (as with the case of some other…
Sensors are normally used to convert physical variables like pressure to signal variables. Sensors are also often termed to as…
Laser diodes are PN junction devices under a forward bias. LASER is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission…
