Programmable Logic Array

By Ashik

 Programmable Logic Array (PLA)
A combinational circuit may occasionally have don’t care conditions. When implemented with a ROM, a don’t care condition become an address input that will never occur. The words at don’t care addresses need not to be programmed.


Why PLA??
 
Consider for example, a combinational circuit that converts a 12-bit card code to a 6-bit internal alphanumeric code
 



 
Valid output = 47

If we use ROM size of ROM = 4096X6

The remaining 4096 words of ROM are not used and are thus wasted




 
The number of Programmed links = 2n×k + k × m + m

Whereas that of a ROM is 2n × m

For previous combinational circuit,  n=12  , k=47 , m=6

So, links for ROM = 4096 X 6 = 24576
       links for PLA = 1128+282+6 = 1416



 
F1= AB’+AC    F2= AC+BC

Armature Winding ,Pole Pitch, Coil Span, Commutator Pitch

By Ashik
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

By Ashik
 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...
