MATHEMATICS: Binary Math and Computer Architecture ( Digital Electronics )

Note: The voltage values need to be worked out, and the simple device here may not represent what’s in real computers, but on a simple level, it comes close. The link beneath this paragraph will take you to a diagram of a NOT Gate. When there’s no voltage ( or current ) applied to theContinue reading “MATHEMATICS: Binary Math and Computer Architecture ( Digital Electronics )”

ELECTRICITY: Direct Current and Parallel Resistors

INTRODUCTION TO DIRECT CURRENT ( DC ) ELECTRONICS : Note: Assuming each resistor ( R ) = 64 Ohms, what is the equivalent resistance of the circuit from points A to B ? Symmetry regarding the flow of electrons is the key to calculating the total resistance ( R ) of this circuit. Let’s suppose theContinue reading “ELECTRICITY: Direct Current and Parallel Resistors”

MATHEMATICS: Binary Math and Digital Electronics

Write the numbers 8,4,2, and 1 in descending order.  We will form binary numbers by choosing the numbers from this list that are needed to form the binary number wanted.  Below, we will see how we use the number 1 to choose which number out of the ( 8,4.2,1 ) sequence is being used toContinue reading “MATHEMATICS: Binary Math and Digital Electronics”

ELECTRICITY: Kirchhoff’s Rules and Negative Current Values

Voltage, where V = IR, is the product of the current ( I ) of Amperes in an electrical circuit in units of coulombs per second ( q/s ), and resistance ( R ) in Ohms. Likewise, voltage is defined as the amount of energy in Joules ( J ) a coulomb of charge carriesContinue reading “ELECTRICITY: Kirchhoff’s Rules and Negative Current Values”
