Virtual Soldering (3)

Published:2011/8/2 2:59:00 Author:Amy

By Dr. Thomas Scherer What can LabVIEW do? LabVIEW has practically everything one would expect from a normal program­ming language: all the usual variable types from bits through double-precision floating-point to arrays and compound types. Even complex numbers are avail­able. It can in some cases calculate directly with physical units. The usual constants from e to the gas ...   (View)

Virtual Soldering (2)

Published:2011/8/2 2:39:00 Author:Amy

Dr. Thomas Scherer What is LabVIEW? The first version of LabVIEW (1.0) appeared in 1986, ini­tially only for the Apple Macintosh computer. At that point the Mac itself was already two years old and repre­sented a revolution in user-friendliness in the history of personal computing. Text-based entry was replaced by graphical metaphors, including a desktop with windows, waste ...   (View)

Virtual Soldering (1)

Published:2011/8/2 2:23:00 Author:Amy

Dr. Thomas Scherer Even experienced electronics engineers occasionally find themselves confronted by the need to swap soldering iron for keyboard: not all projects can be realized purely in hardware. LabVIEW makes an excellent choice of programming language for engineers! When a PC forms an integral part of a technical solution and no suitable software is available off the shelf, so...   (View)

浅谈B2B的发展趋势

Published:2011/8/2 2:14:00 Author:Celina

B2B现在的市场发展势头很猛,据统计国内现在运营的B2B网站(包括公司和个人)已经达到一万多家。据电子商务行业相关数据显示,2010年中国电子商务交易规模达4.8万亿元,较2009年增长33.5%。其中阿里巴巴以绝对的优势占领B2B的龙头位置,但是近几年也陆续有一些新的网站取得迅猛发展,譬如中国化工网,我的钢铁网等,成为B2B行业不可忽视的力量。那么B2B未来的路将怎么走呢,本文做出以下几点推测。 首先,B2B电子商务平台将从信息平台逐渐向服务平台转变。目前国内B2B电子商务平台主要还是以信息服务为主,通过信息发布和产品配对,以帮助企业寻找和获取商机。但是B2B许多先天性交易优势,比如在线价格协商和在线协作等还没有充分发挥出来。现在很多B2B网站的在线交易都需要网下的沟通配合,才能完善整个交易过程。所以B2B电子商务平台必须加强平台服务的功能,由信息发布向交易服务转变。同时,B2B网站要发展配...   (View)

Conclusion We don’t want to claim that choosing an oscilloscope is an easy task, even with this survey to help you. As already mentioned, it’s a good idea (or even essential) to base your choice on your specific measurement tasks, taking future wishes into account as v/ell. This survey and the reported results should then help you to more quickly sort through the available options. ...   (View)

Gameboy Oscilloscope (5)

Published:2011/8/2 1:43:00 Author:Amy

Recommendations To start with, it is important to determine how much band­width and how many channels you need for the measure­ments you will be making - both now and in the future. After all, an oscilloscope’s bandwidth and number of channels cannot be upgraded later on. The next thing to consider is that an oscilloscope cannot be ’interfaced’ to the object to be measured without t...   (View)

Gameboy Oscilloscope (4)

Published:2011/8/2 1:19:00 Author:Amy

Digital storage oscilloscopes The Wittig 22-300, the simplest instrument in the ’pure digital’ category, is limited with regard to more than just its bandwidth and sampling rate. Its operation, measure­ment capabilities and display fall short of qualifying it for serious use. This is offset by its modest price. However, you would be wise to consider purchasing a good ana­logue inst...   (View)

THAT'S CLASS: Audio Amplifiers from A to T (3)

Published:2011/8/2 1:13:00 Author:Li xiao na

By Harry Baggen Classes 5 and T Although the working principle of the Class D amplifier is already several decades old. it never managed to become truly established in hi-fi applications. This was primarily due to excessive distortion and a lack of good semiconductor devices (fast power FETs). In the meantime, several manufacturers have devised variations on thi...   (View)

THAT'S CLASS: Audio Amplifiers from A to T (2)

Published:2011/8/2 0:56:00 Author:Li xiao na

By Harry Baggen Class A Here we begin with the simplest configuration, the Class A final amplifier, which is also one of the best configurations for high-quality audio reproduction. In its basic form, this configuration can be implemented using a standard emitter follower (Figure 1). The quiescent current through the transistor is equal to the peak ...   (View)

THAT'S CLASS: Audio Amplifiers from A to T (1)

Published:2011/8/2 0:40:00 Author:Li xiao na

By Harry Baggen The final amplifier is the power source of every audio installation. Its job is to convert a small alternating voltage into a powerful signal suitable for driving loudspeakers, with as little distortion as possible. During the years since the invention of electronic audio systems, designers have come up with various approaches to this problem. It all started with Class A... <...   (View)

By Jim Spence Memory The memory space of the 8052 uses an architecture that shares parallel areas of memory. By logically combining the OE and PSEN signals to access the RAM it means that the external RAM can be used as program memory. The 8051 architecture is old and we’re sure that separating out the data and program memory seemed like a good idea at the time. This is what is know...   (View)
