A real time clock, or RTC, is a digital clock which function is to keep track of time even when power is turned off or a device is placed in low power mode.
A digital timer is a type of small, battery operated device that digitally counts down the minutes for accurate timing. The main...
Schematic capture is an integral stage of the overall printed circuit board design flow: Typical PCB design flow highlighting schematic creation stage The process starts with theschematic entryphase where the logical electronic connections are established using CAD software. ...
An integrated circuit (IC), sometimes called a chip, microchip or microelectronic circuit, is asemiconductorwafer on which thousands or millions of tinyresistors,capacitors,diodesandtransistorsare fabricated. An IC can function as anamplifier,oscillator, timer,counter,logic gate, computermemory,microcontro...
IS-IS works at the data link layer, independent of IP addresses. It uses the SPF algorithm, ensuring fast convergence. It applies to large networks, such as Internet service provider (ISP) networks. What Are the Basic Concepts of IS-IS? IS-IS Router Types To support large-scale routing ...
1. What is a watchdog timer (WDT: Watchdog timer) A watchdog timer (WDT) is a timer that monitors microcontroller (MCU) programs to see if they are out of control or have stopped operating. It acts as a “watchdog” watching over MCU operation. A microcontroller (MCU) is a compact...
This relay is called an ‘on-delay’ timer, meaning the timer starts the moment voltage is applied to the ‘coil’ input terminals. I say ‘coil’ in quotes because the signal is actually applied to a complex integrated circuit (IC) which, in turn, applies voltage to the coil. Off Dela...
flashlight will not overheat and damage the internal parts as it adjusts light modes after 1 minute. Also, it has a special feature which is the built-in timer, with a 3-minute short-timer and 9 minutes long timer. Due to its compactness, using this flashlight is easy, and so is ...
The microprocessor is a single-chip CPU, and the microcontroller integrates the CPU and other circuits in an integrated circuit chip to form a complete microcomputer system. In addition to the CPU, the microcontroller also includes RAM, ROM, a serial interface, a parallel interface, a timer and...
