Display-Devices-Recorders

Introduction

•The last stage of instrumentation & measurement is display devices & recorders. Because the results of a measurement system are meaningful, they must be displayed for instant observation of for storage for observation at a later stage. The first device is called a “display device” and the second a “recorder”. The data presentation devices may be called as output devices.

Advantage of digital display system

•Faster

•Lighter weight

•Cheap

•Low error probability

•Compatible with other devices

•Adjustable resolution gives better display

•Low power consumption

Our Focus

•Seven segment display

•Liquid crystal display

•Cathode ray tube

•Digital Frequency Meter

•Digital Voltmeter (DVM)

seven-segment display (SSD)

•A seven-segment display (SSD), or seven-segment indicator, is a form of electronic display device for displaying decimal numerals that is an alternative to the more complex dot-matrix displays. Seven-segment displays are widely used in digital clocks, electronic meters, and other electronic devices for displaying numerical information.

•The idea of the seven-segment display is quite old. In 1910, for example, a seven-segment display illuminated by incandescent bulbs was used on a power-plant boiler room signal panel.

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

Coding

Binary Coding 1. Binary Coded Decimal (BCD) Binary coded decimal (BCD) is a way to express each of the decimal digits with a binary code. There are only ten code groups in the BCD system, so it is very easy to convert between decimal and BCD. Because welike to read and write in decimal, the BCD code provides an excellent interface to binary systems. Examples of such interfaces are keypad inputs and digital readouts. The 8421 Code: The 8421 code is a type of BCD (binary coded decimal) code. Binary coded decimal means that each decimal digit, 0 through 9, is represented by a binary code of four bits. The designation 8421indicates the binary weights of the four bits 2 3 , 2 2 , 2 1 , 2 0 . The ease of conversion between 8421 code numbers and the familiar decimal numbers is the main advantage of this code. All wehave to remember are the ten binary combinations that represent the ten decimal digits as shown in Table 1. The 8421 code is the predominant BCD code, and when we ref
