Converter


 Voltage to Time A/D converter (Ramp type)


Any digital voltmeter has a fundamental cycle sequence which involves sampling, display, and reset sequence. The application of input voltage initiates the measurement cycle. The oscillator is automatically switched with the operator and its output consists of pulses which are counted by an electronic counter. A units counter is first actuated. This units counter provides a carry pulse to the tens counter on using the counter input pulse. In turn, the tens counter provides its own carry pulse after it has counted 10 carry pulses from the units counter. If excess input voltage is being measured, it provides its own carry pulse which switches on a warning lamp.
Each decade counter unit in a DVM is counted as a D to A converter. Outputs of a D to A convertor are connected in parallel which build up a comparison voltage. At the instant when the comparison section senses that the input voltage and comparison voltages are equal, it produces a trigger pulse which stops the oscillator.


 voltage to frequency converter

 A voltage-controlled oscillator or VCO is an electronic oscillator whose oscillation frequency is controlled by a voltage input. The applied input voltage determines the instantaneous oscillation frequency. Consequently, modulating signals applied to control input may cause frequency modulation (FM) or phase modulation (PM). A VCO may also be part of a phase-locked loop.

Armature Winding ,Pole Pitch, Coil Span, Commutator Pitch

Now we are going to discuss about armature winding in details. Before going through this section, we should understand some basic terms related to armature winding of dc generator . Pole Pitch Definition of Pole Pitch The pole pitch is defined as peripheral distance between center of two adjacent poles in dc machine. This distance is measured in term of armature slots or armature conductor come between two adjacent pole centers. This is naturally equal to the total number of armature slots divided by number of poles in the machine. If there are 96 slots on the armature periphery and 4 numbers of poles in the machine, the numbers of armature slots come between two adjacent poles centers would be 96/4 = 24. Hence, the pole pitch of that dc machine would be 24. As it is seen that, pole pitch is equal to total numbers of armature slots divided by total numbers of poles, this can alternatively referred as armature slots per pole . Coil Span or Coil Pitch Coil of ...

8255 Programmable Peripheral

8255 Programmable Peripheral Interface (PPI) Intel 8255A is a general purpose parallel I/O interface. The peripheral devices are slower than the microprocessor. PPI makes an inter-relation between microprocessor and peripheral devices. It provides three I/O port (Port A, Port B and Port C) and can be programmed as a) Simple Parallel I/O (No handshaking) b) Simple Strobe I/O (Use STB handshake) c) Single Handshake I/O (Use STB-ACK handshake) d) Double handshake I/O (Uses STB-ACK and STB-ACK) Handshaking and Handshaking Signal The making of inter relation between slower peripheral device and microprocessor is called handshaking. Before making the inter-relation between peripheral device and microprocessor the PPI send some signals to microprocessor and peripheral device to perform the process, these signals are called handshaking signal. 8255-based devices that perform handshaking support four handshaking signals: • Strobe Input (STB) • Input Buffer Full (IBF) • ...
