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 ...

Transformer

 A transformer is a static electrical device that transfers energy by inductive coupling between its winding circuits. The transformer is one of the simplest of electrical devices. Its basic design, materials, and principles have changed little over the last one hundred years, yet transformer designs and materials continue to be improved. Transformers are essential in high voltage power transmission providing an economical means of transmitting power over large distances. The simplicity, reliability, and economy of conversion of voltages by transformers was the principal factor in the selection of alternating current power transmission in the "War of Currents" in the late 1880's. In electronic circuitry, new methods of circuit design have replaced some of the applications of transformers, but electronic technology has also developed new transformer designs and applications. Transformers come in a range of sizes from a thumbnail-sized coupling transfo...
