Basic concepts | ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) Explained
Saturday, May 28, 2011
Difficulty: Intermediate
ESD is a serious issue in solid state electronics, such as integrated circuits. Integrated circuits are made from semiconductor materials such as silicon and insulating materials such as silicon dioxide. Either of these materials can suffer permanent damage when subjected to high voltages; as a result, there are now a number of antistatic devices that help prevent static build up.

PHP & MySQL | PHP MySQL Connection class
Friday, July 16, 2010
Difficulty: Begginer

Developing a website nowadays is useless unless you deal with storing and retrieving data from a database. PHP and MySQL are most famous server side scripting language combination currently available. Although it is quite possible to deal with MySQL through built-in PHP functions, an inter mediating class can make the job a lot easier. in this article I provide you with a MySQL connection class that will help you doing MySQL queries and data retrieval in an easier way.

Basic concepts | Electrical resistance
Sunday, July 11, 2010
Difficulty: Begginer

The electrical resistance of an object is a measure of its opposition to the passage of a steady electric current. An object of uniform cross section will have a resistance proportional to its length and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area, and proportional to the resistivity of the material...

Basic concepts | Electric circuits
Sunday, July 11, 2010
Difficulty: Begginer

You might have been wondering how electrons can continuously flow in a uniform direction through wires without the benefit of these hypothetical electron Sources and Destinations. In order for the Source-and-Destination scheme to work, both would have to have an infinite capacity for electrons in order to sustain a continuous flow! Using the marble-and-tube analogy, the marble source and marble destination buckets would have to be infinitely large to contain enough marble capacity for a "flow" of marbles to be sustained.
