So at my school they have Electronic Engineering Technology & Electrical Engineering. However, the EET program is ABET accredited but the EE is not. They have the option of completing the EET degree then taking an additional 36 credits for the EE degree. So I'd have an ABET accredited degree...

I'm trying to understand the concept of a control system in electronics. In a control system, we have a substractor, forward path and feedback path. The forward path is described by a function g ( a gain function ) and the feedback by another function ( gain again ). The input is Xi and the...

guys, any suggestion website for study basic electronic?? thank you~

First off, I'm not sure If the best place to post this would be in the ME or EE section. I'm basically looking for an inexpensive electronically controlled regulator. I want to hook it up to a standard propane tank that you would see on a grill and be able to control the output flow in...

Hi people from Physics forums. This might be an off topic question but, since there are a lot of engineers and physicists here, i'll ask. What are the requirements for an electronics or electrical engineering major, can I be an engineer if I always sucked at math at school?. I've...

Is it just me, but if you multiply anything by 100% you'll end up with the same number? I believe the authors meant to write 100, not 100%. This is from 5 steps to a 5 AP Chem. [PLAIN]http://i.min.us/icDcjc.png

Can anybody tell me the significance of the band origin for a P(Q)R structure in the ultraviolet region of a molecules spectrum? In standard vibrational spectra, I understand that its roughly the harmonic frequency of the oscillator, and that the rotational constant can also be found from...

Is there a defined change in the electron orbitals of atoms as they transition from one state to the next? Is there a connection between the average kinetic energy of an atom, its electronic structure and its state of matter?

I was reading all over the place that graphene has some really great electronic properties that could potentially replace silicon, electrons in graphene behave almost like massless particles etc. My question is, HOW did scientists find out these properties in graphene? What kind of experiments...

Homework Statement A voltage - potential difference- is really just a measure of how badly electrons want to go from one terminal to the other. By connecting a wire, we create an E-field within that wire - the only path. Now my problem is, I used to think a battery - a source of voltage...

Now it's my time to choose my major,I will choose from Civil Engeering and Electronic Engineering.In my university,Civil Engeering College is better than Electronic Engineering College,I may get a higher salary if I choose the previous one,but the work may be tougher(I may stay at a very remote...

i wonder if anyone can tell me the meaning of "The Barkhausen stability criterion is a condition to determine when an electronic circuit will oscillate." in this what is the meaning of an electronic circuit will oscillate? thanks

Hii, I was wondering whether there is any correlation between the energy eigenvalues of a single atom (say He) with the electronic band structure of a collection of He atoms. for example, for He atoms the lowest energy would be the ground state, with 2 electrons. So will the lowest band for a...

Hi I have questions related to the electronic configurations of elements of d and f-block. First I want to ask a question about the E.C. of Lanthanium. This element has E.C. [Xe]5d16s2, but according to Bohr-Bury rule 4f-orbitals should be filled prior to 5d-orbital and then Lanthanium’s E.C...

Hi all. I have a question that I am thinking about for a couple of days. Let's consider the time-independent Schroedinger equation for a molecule: H0 [psi> = E0 [psi> Now, we know that the unperturbed Hamiltonian consist of electronic kinetic energy operator, electron-electron repulsion...

Hello forum members, I got a nifty new multireference CI program at my hands and now I'm wondering what to do with it. The program is able to correlate general MCSCF wave functions, and as such basically any kind of molecular electronic structure imaginable; in particular also electronic...

so I am starting to work on research in electronic masking... What applications of this topic could I draw a hypothesis from? I'm having trouble finding a potential hypothesis/thesis topic. Thanks!

Let's consider we have a crystal and we search the energy relation of the bands as function of the reciprocal lattice vectors. We would do that theoretical by applying the Tight-binding method. Let's consider that each band is associated with some kind of orbital ( for instance, 3d orbitals). Is...

Someone please tell me if I am thinking right: Let's consider an unperturbed electronic state of an atom/molecule. If we denote it by [a>, then the average electronic momentum in state [a> is, <p> = <a]p[a> = (<a]p<a])* (because p is hermitian) = (<a]*p*[a>*)...

Hello, I am looking for recent info/studies on electronic packaging costs. I focus on the extreme cheap type of packages (e.g. SOT23). In general it nails it down to low I/O PLCC. A study on components sold in this type of package form is interesting too. Story on cheap LEDs interst me...

Hey all. So, I understand that every bound electronic state will have zero average electronic momentum, because otherwise the electron will fly off the atom. But how do I show mathematically that < p > = 0 for any bound state. Any help or reference greatly appreciated. Thanks.

this one comes out of my homework question. I am not asking you guys helping me doing my homework, i had a thought but didn't work at all and i hope someone can tell me what is going on. question: Suppose the magnitude of the proton charge differs from the magnitude of the electron charge by...

1- upon getting sufficient energy, electrons make transitions in between their orbits. suppose an electron, from the first orbit, is provided energy that is enough for it to settle down some where between 3rd and 4th orbit, will it make an orbit of its own there if the source of energy does not...

I have seen most people say electronic dictionary, diary etc. I often confuses the terms. Since long time I have referred to my handheld Franklin dictionary as digital dictionary. Am I wrong?
