This document discusses different types of clipper circuits. It defines clipper circuits as circuits used to remove parts of a signal that are above or below a defined reference level. There are two main types of clipper circuits: unbiased and biased. Unbiased clippers include positive and negative clippers, which clip either the positive or negative portions of a signal respectively. Biased clippers add an external bias voltage to adjust the clipping level, and also include positive and negative varieties.
Clippers are circuits that remove or cut unwanted portions of a waveform. They are used for amplitude limiting and noise elimination. The basic components of a clipping circuit are an ideal diode and resistor. Different types of clippers include series and parallel clippers, which are further classified as unbiased or biased depending on whether an external voltage is applied. Series clippers have the diode in series with the load while parallel clippers place the diode in parallel to the load.
Clipping and clamping circuits use diodes to modify input waveforms. Clipping circuits cut off portions of the waveform that exceed a threshold voltage, while clamping circuits shift the DC level of a waveform up or down. Basic clipping circuits use diodes, resistors, and batteries, with the diode orientation and battery voltage determining if it is a positive or negative clipper. Positive clippers cut off positive portions of the input, while negative clippers cut off negative portions. Clipping can be done in either a series or parallel configuration.
This document discusses different types of unbiased clippers. It explains that a clipper is a circuit that limits the amplitude of an output wave. There are two main categories of clippers: parallel and series. For unbiased parallel clippers, the input is a sine wave and the diode acts as a half-wave rectifier, either clipping out the positive or negative portion of the wave. Unbiased series clippers also act as half-wave rectifiers, clipping either the positive or negative half of the input sine wave. Graphical representations are provided to illustrate the clipping action.
This document presents on different types of clipper circuits. It discusses unbiased positive and negative clipper circuits, as well as biased positive and negative clipper circuits. It provides circuit diagrams to illustrate each type and describes how they work to clip portions of input signals. The document also outlines using Pspice to observe input and output signals of clipper circuits and references sources for more information.
The document discusses different types of clipper and clamper circuits. It describes diode clippers that clip voltages above or below the diode threshold. Biased clippers add a DC source to change the clipping level. Parallel clippers clip voltages that forward bias the diode. Clampers use a diode and capacitor to clamp an AC signal to a specific DC level, either positive or negative. Biased clampers allow adjusting the clamping level with a DC source. The document concludes with references on electronic devices.

Clippers and clampers are electronic circuits that shape waveforms. Clippers limit output voltage by clipping portions of the input signal without distortion. Clampers shift the DC level of the output voltage by adding a fixed DC potential. Some key differences are that clippers limit output while clampers shift the DC level. Both have various applications including waveform generation and shaping, signal separation, protection from transients, and as components in television receivers.

This document discusses different types of clipping and clamping circuits. There are three types of clipping circuits: positive clipper, negative clipper, and biased clipper. A positive clipper removes the positive half of an AC input signal, while a negative clipper removes the negative half. A biased clipper removes a small portion of either the positive or negative half. There are also two types of clamping circuits: positive clamper and negative clamper. A positive clamper pushes a signal upward, while a negative clamper pushes it downward. The document provides details on the circuitry and operation of each type.
This presentation summarizes different types of clipper circuits. It defines clippers as circuits that can clip off or remove unwanted portions of an input waveform without distorting the rest. The presentation describes series and parallel/shunt clipper circuits, and provides examples of unbiased and biased series and parallel clipper circuits. It explains how different clipper circuits work and lists some applications of clippers such as changing waveform shapes and circuit transient protection.
A clipper circuit uses diodes to remove parts of the waveform above or below a certain threshold. There are positive and negative clipper circuits that remove the positive or negative half of the input waveform. Biased clippers add a battery to change where the signal is clipped. A combination clipper removes parts of both halves of the input waveform. A clamper circuit adds a DC offset to an AC signal without changing its shape using a diode, capacitor, and resistor. Clampers are used to increase the wavelength of an input wave, such as in audio amplifiers.
Clipper circuits are used to remove parts of a signal that are above or below a defined reference level. There are several types of clipper circuits: unbiased positive and negative clippers which clip either the positive or negative portions of a signal, and biased positive and negative clippers which use an external bias voltage to adjust the clipping level. Unbiased clippers cut off either the positive or negative half of the input waveform based on the diode configuration. Biased clippers allow changing the clipping level by adjusting the bias voltage applied in series with the input signal and diode.
Clampers are electronic circuits that shift a waveform to a different voltage level without changing its appearance. There are two main types: positive clampers shift the input signal in a positive direction above a reference level, while negative clampers shift it in a negative direction below the reference. Clampers work by using diodes and capacitors to either pass or block portions of the input signal depending on its polarity, resulting in the output being shifted to a different DC level from the input but retaining the same AC waveform. They are commonly used in applications like test equipment, radar, sonar, and television receivers.
Clippers and clampers are diode-based circuits used to modify signal waveforms. Clippers eliminate portions of an input signal to "clip" the waveform, and are used to remove noise or create new waveforms. They come in series and parallel types. Series clippers place the diode in series with the load, and clip voltages that don't forward bias the diode. Parallel clippers take the output across the diode, producing the voltage when it is not conducting. Clampers "clamp" a signal to a different DC level using a capacitor, diode, and resistor. The capacitor stores a reference voltage to set the output level when the diode is non-conducting.

Clippers cut off portions of the waveform above or below certain thresholds, while clampers shift the entire waveform up or down without changing its shape. Both have applications in signal processing and protection of electronic components.
Commutation is the process of turning off a conducting thyristor. There are two types of commutation: voltage commutation, which involves making the anode negative with respect to the cathode, and current commutation, which reduces the anode current below the holding current value. For successful commutation, the reverse voltage or low anode current condition must be maintained for at least the thyristor turn-off time to prevent it from conducting again without a gate signal. Commutation techniques can be classified as natural commutation, which occurs during the negative half cycle of an AC supply, or forced commutation, which requires an external commutation circuit when using DC.
The document discusses the silicon controlled rectifier (SCR), which is a thyristor used to control high voltages compared to transistors. It has a four-layer PNPN semiconductor structure with anode, cathode, and gate terminals. The SCR was developed in 1956 and can handle large power levels. It is used for applications like AC voltage stabilization, switching, inverters, power control, battery charging, and motor speed control due to advantages like high voltage/current handling and simple triggering. However, it can only control power during half cycles of AC and not at high frequencies.
This document provides an overview of thyristors, including:
1) Thyristors are four-layer semiconductor devices that can handle high currents and voltages with low control power. Common types include SCRs, triacs, and GTOs.
2) Compared to transistors, thyristors have lower conduction losses and higher power handling but worse switching performance.
3) Thyristors operate in forward blocking, forward conducting, or reverse blocking modes depending on voltage polarity. They can be turned on through various methods including gate triggering.
Rc circuits and its transient responseHamzaAbbas43
An RC circuit consists of a resistor and capacitor connected in series. When charged, a capacitor will discharge through the resistor over time. A resistor controls the rate of charging and discharging, with higher resistance leading to slower charging. RC circuits can be used as filters, with high-pass filters passing higher frequencies and low-pass filters passing lower frequencies. The transient response of an RC circuit depends on the relative time constant and input signal period, resulting in either a triangular output for an integrator or spiked output for a differentiator.
This document discusses different types of commutation for turning off SCRs (thyristors). It describes Class A commutation which uses a resonant load to achieve zero voltage turn-off, Class B which uses self-commutation via the intrinsic timing of the SCR, and Class C which uses one SCR to turn off another. Class D uses an auxiliary SCR to apply reverse voltage commutation across the main SCR. Class E applies a reverse voltage pulse and Class F utilizes the negative half of an AC cycle for natural commutation without extra circuitry. In summary, the document outlines six common classes of commutation techniques for turning off SCRs either through reducing current or applying a reverse voltage.
This document discusses different types of clipping circuits. There are two main types of clippers: series clippers and shunt clippers. Series clippers have the diode and resistor connected in series with the input signal, while shunt clippers have them connected in parallel. Both can clip either the positive or negative half of the input waveform. Clippers prevent signals from exceeding a reference voltage level and are used to shape waveforms, in power supplies, and to remove ripples in FM transmitters. They provide overvoltage protection but can also clip transmitted data values outside the circuit's range.

This document describes different types of clipping circuits that AbdulWahab Raza experimented with for his class assignment. It discusses positive, negative, positive-biased, and negative-biased clipper circuits. For each circuit, it explains the circuit components used and describes the resulting waveform observed on an oscilloscope. The circuits are designed to reduce or remove portions of an alternating current waveform in either the positive or negative cycle.
Oscillators produce a continuous output waveform using only a DC input voltage. There are several types of oscillators that produce either sinusoidal or non-sinusoidal outputs depending on the circuit design. Oscillators require positive feedback and conditions where the feedback gain is at least unity and the total phase shift around the feedback loop is zero degrees in order to sustain oscillations. Common oscillator circuits discussed in the document include RC oscillators, crystal oscillators, and LC oscillators such as the Colpitts and Hartley oscillators.
The document discusses silicon controlled rectifiers (SCRs), which are four-layer semiconductor devices containing three PN junctions. SCRs can be switched on and off rapidly to control the delivery of power to a load. Unlike a diode, an SCR can be made to operate as either an open circuit or conducting rectifier depending on gate triggering. The SCR consists of alternating P-type and N-type layers with three junctions (J1, J2, J3). Applying a positive voltage to the gate terminal forward biases J3, allowing current to flow and triggering the SCR into its conducting on state. Common applications of SCRs include rectification, power supplies, static switches, motor speed controls
Cycloconverters are used to convert AC power directly to AC power of variable magnitude and frequency. They have four main advantages over conventional AC to DC to AC conversion: they do not require an intermediate DC link, allow bidirectional power flow, can produce high quality sine waves at low frequencies without filters, and are line commutated without a separate commutation circuit. Cycloconverters are commonly used to drive large induction and synchronous motors at frequencies from 0-20Hz, such as in cement mill, ship propulsion, rolling mill, and mine applications. However, they have disadvantages of not allowing smooth stepless frequency control, producing more distortion at low frequencies, and having a more complex control circuit design.
Guiding catheters are essential tools for PCI that provide support and allow delivery of devices to the coronary arteries. Selection involves considering factors like coronary anatomy, access site, and the procedure. The document discusses various catheter types including Judkins, Amplatz and extra support catheters. It also reviews tips for radial access PCI and techniques like using guide extensions or anchor balloons to support radial catheters. Proper catheter selection is important for achieving coaxial engagement and performing complex PCI procedures successfully.
Thyristors are four-layer pnpn power semiconductor devices that switch between conducting and nonconducting states in response to a control signal. They are used in timing circuits, AC motor speed control and switching circuits. Thyristors have lower on-state conduction losses and higher power handling capability compared to transistors, but worse switching performances. Common thyristor devices include SCRs, SCSs, triacs, diacs, PUTs, and GTOs. Thyristors can be turned on through forward voltage triggering, gate triggering, dv/dt triggering, temperature triggering, or light triggering, with gate triggering being the most common method.

Creativity involves imagining or inventing something new through flexible and original thinking. It brings new products, processes, or ideas into existence. The creative process evolves ideas through preparation, incubation, illumination, and verification stages. Preparation involves investigating problems, incubation allows unconscious thought, illumination sparks insights, and verification implements and tests ideas. Creativity relies on imagination, which can envision nonexistent objects and fill knowledge gaps, while creativity produces tangible outcomes. Imagination types include effectuative, intellectual, fantasy, empathy, strategic, emotional, dreams, and memory reconstruction.

EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...Sérgio Sacani
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.
Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...Ana Luísa Pinho
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.
Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvementIshaGoswami9
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.

The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically youngSérgio Sacani
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.

The use of Nauplii and metanauplii artemia in aquaculture (brine shrimp).pptxMAGOTI ERNEST
Although Artemia has been known to man for centuries, its use as a food for the culture of larval organisms apparently began only in the 1930s, when several investigators found that it made an excellent food for newly hatched fish larvae (Litvinenko et al., 2023). As aquaculture developed in the 1960s and ‘70s, the use of Artemia also became more widespread, due both to its convenience and to its nutritional value for larval organisms (Arenas-Pardo et al., 2024). The fact that Artemia dormant cysts can be stored for long periods in cans, and then used as an off-the-shelf food requiring only 24 h of incubation makes them the most convenient, least labor-intensive, live food available for aquaculture (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021). The nutritional value of Artemia, especially for marine organisms, is not constant, but varies both geographically and temporally. During the last decade, however, both the causes of Artemia nutritional variability and methods to improve poorquality Artemia have been identified (Loufi et al., 2024).
Brine shrimp (Artemia spp.) are used in marine aquaculture worldwide. Annually, more than 2,000 metric tons of dry cysts are used for cultivation of fish, crustacean, and shellfish larva. Brine shrimp are important to aquaculture because newly hatched brine shrimp nauplii (larvae) provide a food source for many fish fry (Mozanzadeh et al., 2021). Culture and harvesting of brine shrimp eggs represents another aspect of the aquaculture industry. Nauplii and metanauplii of Artemia, commonly known as brine shrimp, play a crucial role in aquaculture due to their nutritional value and suitability as live feed for many aquatic species, particularly in larval stages (Sorgeloos & Roubach, 2021).
ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptxPRIYANKA PATEL
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.

DERIVATION OF MODIFIED BERNOULLI EQUATION WITH VISCOUS EFFECTS AND TERMINAL V...Wasswaderrick3
In this book, we use conservation of energy techniques on a fluid element to derive the Modified Bernoulli equation of flow with viscous or friction effects. We derive the general equation of flow/ velocity and then from this we derive the Pouiselle flow equation, the transition flow equation and the turbulent flow equation. In the situations where there are no viscous effects , the equation reduces to the Bernoulli equation. From experimental results, we are able to include other terms in the Bernoulli equation. We also look at cases where pressure gradients exist. We use the Modified Bernoulli equation to derive equations of flow rate for pipes of different cross sectional areas connected together. We also extend our techniques of energy conservation to a sphere falling in a viscous medium under the effect of gravity. We demonstrate Stokes equation of terminal velocity and turbulent flow equation. We look at a way of calculating the time taken for a body to fall in a viscous medium. We also look at the general equation of terminal velocity.
