(8 Questions)

  • Q1. About your roles and responsibilities in previous company..?
  • Q2. Voltage divider network design..?
  • Ans. 

    A voltage divider network is a circuit that divides a voltage into smaller parts.

    • Consists of two resistors in series

    • Output voltage is a fraction of input voltage

    • Used in various applications such as level shifting and biasing

    • Formula for output voltage is Vout = Vin * (R2 / (R1 + R2))

  • Answered by AI
  • Q3. Resistor wattage calculation.?
  • Ans. 

    Resistor wattage calculation involves determining the power rating of a resistor based on its voltage and current ratings.

    • Calculate the power dissipated by the resistor using the formula P = VI

    • Choose a resistor with a wattage rating greater than or equal to the calculated power

    • Consider the ambient temperature and the need for heat dissipation when selecting a resistor

    • Example: A resistor with a voltage rating of 12V and...

    LDO circuits are low-dropout voltage regulators that provide a stable output voltage with low input-output voltage differential.

    • LDO circuits are commonly used in battery-powered devices and other low-power applications.

    • They have a simple design and are easy to use.

    • LDO circuits have a low dropout voltage, which means they can regulate the output voltage even when the input voltage is close to the output voltage.

    • They hav...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q6. SMPS design calculation..?

  • Ans. 

    The number of handshakes in a party with 30 members where each person shakes hands with every other person once.

    • Calculate the total number of handshakes using the formula n(n-1)/2, where n is the number of people.

    • Substitute n=30 in the formula to get the total number of handshakes.

    • Total handshakes = 30(30-1)/2 = 435 handshakes.
