Why Wi-Fi gaining over RJ45

RJ45 LAN Cable

The speed of data transfer on a wired connection depends on Cable, Connector and the Crimping. Ethernet over Coax (EoC) co-axial cable. Optical and Gigabit Ethernet over Optic Fibers. Copper twisted pair and others are other means of Digital Data Transfer over Ethernet. Wi-Fi and WiMax helps freeing the user from wires. Remember Wired is more secure than Wireless. Intranet is safer than Internet.

Insulation Resistance Testing - AEMC

Insulation Resistance Testing

This Insulation Testing Reference by AEMC Instruments is a Must Read for all Instrumentation and Electrical Professionals. Even Students and Enthusiasts who want to learn more about Insulation, can find this informative. 

The other reference articles also are of Learning Interest. Insulation Testing is a Part of Power, Energy, Green, Solar Systems as well. It is an Important part of Product Safety. 

ICL7107 DPM and DVM chip from Intersil

7107 circuits

The Intersil ICL7106 and ICL7107 are high performance, low power, 31/2 digit A/D converters. Included are seven segment decoders, display drivers, a reference, and a clock. The ICL7106 is designed to interface with a liquid crystal display (LCD) and includes a multiplexed backplane drive; the ICL7107 will directly drive an instrument size light emitting diode (LED) display.

delabs Notes - In a Circuit Module, if all Power and Signal Polarities are reversed. All NPN to PNP, All N-Channel to P-Channel and Vice Versa. All Diodes and Caps too turned around. This Topsy Turvy or Mirror Design ought to work in Theory. It has worked for some circuits in practice too in my experience. ? 

Some believe that N-Channel is more Robust than the P Type. In Bipolar Transistor NPN is more trusted for the final output stages. The NPN Transistor and N-Channel turn-on by a Positive control bias. It may be inappropriate to say this mosfet is NPN or PNP. 

LM3914 - Dot Bar Display Driver

LM3914 - Dot Bar Display Driver

The LM3914 is a monolithic integrated circuit that senses analog voltage levels and drives 10 LEDs, providing a linear analog display. A single pin changes the display from a moving dot to a bar graph. Current drive to the LEDs is regulated and programmable, eliminating the need for resistors. This feature is one that allows operation of the whole system from less than 3V. LM3914 - Versatile and Easy use Display
