Solid State Physics and Materials Science

By Ashik
What is Solid?

The sate of matter in which materials are not fluid but retain their boundaries without support and having three dimension (length, breadth and thickness) as a geometric body or figure. Example:


»Atomic solid,

»Metallic solid,

»Molecular solid and 
» Ionic solid
 Solid can be divided in Crystalline and non- Crystalline of Solid


•Crystalline solid: Materials in which atoms are placed in a high ordered structure are called crystalline (Long range). Example: Metal, Insulator and Semiconductor 
•Non- Crystalline solid: Non- Crystalline solid divided in Amorphous solid and Polycrystalline:
–Amorphous solid:  Materials in which atoms are placed at random are called amorphose (short range)
–Polycrystalline:  Solid many small regions of single crystal

What is Materials? 
 
•Materials are made up of lot of little particles. How these particles are arranged determines their state. A materials state can be solid, liquid and gas.

–Solid: Solid can be hold their own shape unless something happens to them

–Liquid: Liquid flow and take the shape of their container

–Gases are usually invisible and spread out to fill up spaces


 Classes of Materials: Six Major Classes of Materials


•Metals

–Iron and Steel

– Alloys and Superalloys (e.g. aerospace applications)

– Intermetallic Compounds (high-T structural materials)

•Ceramics

– Structural Ceramics (high-temperature load bearing)

– Refractories (corrosion-resistant, insulating)

–Glass

– Electrical Ceramics (capacitors, insulators, transducers, etc.)

– Chemically Bonded Ceramics (e.g. cement and concrete

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 ...

8255 Programmable Peripheral

By Ashik
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) • ...
