What is PCB and how does it work?

 A Printed Circuit Board (PCB) is a fundamental component in electronic devices, providing the physical structure to mount and connect electronic components. The process of working with a PCB involves designing, fabricating, assembling, and testing. Below is a simplified guide on how to work with a PCB: 1. Designing a PCB PCB design is the first and crucial step. It involves creating a blueprint of the electrical circuit that will be etched onto the board. Choose PCB Design Software : Common tools include KiCad , Eagle , Altium Designer , or EasyEDA . Schematic Diagram : Create a schematic that shows how components are connected (e.g., resistors, capacitors, ICs). Component Placement : In the PCB design software, place components on the board. The design should consider the physical size and pin connections of the components. Routing : This is the process of connecting the components via traces (the electrical pathways). Ensure proper routing to minimize interference and avoid s...

Classification of pumps and their working principles | TECHNOLOGY FACTS

positive displacement pumps Positive displacement pumps are a type of pump that operates by using mechanical action to displace fluid from an inlet to an outlet. These pumps are designed to move a fixed amount of fluid per cycle or revolution and are known for their ability to generate high pressures, handle viscous liquids, and maintain a consistent flow rate. They are widely used in various industries, including oil and gas, chemical processing, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and water treatment. Here are some key characteristics and types of positive displacement pumps: Principle of Operation: Positive displacement pumps work by trapping fluid in a cavity and then forcing it out to create flow. The cavity expands and contracts as the pump's mechanism moves, thereby generating the desired fluid displacement. Fixed Displacement: These pumps move a fixed volume of fluid per cycle, regardless of the system pressure. This characteristic makes them suitable for applications requi...

Parts of internal combustion engines (Petrol, Diesel, Gasoline, Electric) | TECHNOLOGY FACTS

What are the components of a petrol vehicle. Engine: The engine is where fuel combustion takes place. In a petrol vehicle, it's typically a four-stroke internal combustion engine. It has cylinders where pistons move up and down. The intake stroke draws in a mixture of air and petrol, the compression stroke compresses this mixture, the power stroke ignites it with a spark from the spark plugs, and the exhaust stroke expels the resulting exhaust gases. Fuel System: The fuel system starts with the fuel tank where petrol is stored. The fuel pump draws petrol from the tank and sends it to the engine through fuel lines. In modern vehicles, fuel injectors spray the petrol directly into the engine's cylinders. In older vehicles, a carburetor mixes air and fuel before sending it to the engine. Exhaust System: After the fuel is burnt in the engine, the exhaust system manages the resulting gases. The exhaust manifold collects these gases from the cylinders. The gases then pass through the...
