What are the differences between Arduino and Raspberry pi?
Most of you know about arduino few of you may know about raspberry pi here i am explanning what is raspberry Pi and difference between Arduino and Raspberry Pi.
What is Paspberry Pi
The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer board that plugs into a TV and a keyboard. It’s a miniature ARM-based PC which can be used for many of the things that a desktop PC does, like spreadsheets, word-processing and games. It also plays High-Definition video. The Raspberry Pi model B board is supplied as the board only, and comes without operating system, SD card, power supply, keyboard, case or cables.Sunday, 26 August 2012

Curiosity NASA Rover Images & Animated Videos
NASA has taken a bold new step in the exploration of Planet Mars with a new rover called Curiosity External link, Opens in a new window (centerpiece of the Mars Science Laboratory mission). Curiosity will seek to determine if the Red Planet ever had conditions to support life. Launched from Cape Canaveral on November 26, 2011, Curiosity carries a Canadian-made geology instrument that will enable the rover to determine the chemical composition of the rocks and soil on Mars.
The mobile lab will be equipped with ten different instruments, each with specialized capabilities to investigate different aspects of the rocks and soils or the current environment of the planet. Compiling the data from all the instruments will help scientists establish if Mars was once a more hospitable place for life.
Although recent missions led by Curiosity's predecessors have provided valuable data on the geological composition of our planetary neighbour, Curiosity will delve into Mars' environmental history in much greater detail than previous missions. This laboratory on wheels will act as a motorized field geologist and geochemist, probing and analysing the Martian surface using, among other things, its Alpha Particle X-ray Spectrometer (APXS) provided by the Canadian Space Agency (CSA). The spectrometer, specially adapted and tuned for the mission, will analyse samples to help ascertain the potential habitability of Mars.

TTL and CMOS characteristics
Supply voltage.
The bipolar TIT, fami-lies require +5 volts, +5%, whereas the CMOS families have a wider range: +2 to +6 volts for HC and AC, +3 to +15 volts for 4000B and 74C. The HCT and ACT CMOS families, designed for compatibility with bipolar TTL (see below), require +5 volts. Input A TTL input held in the LOW state sources current into whatever drives it (0.25mA typ for LS), so to pull it LOW you must sink current. Since the TTL output circuit (a saturated npn transition) is good at sinking current, this presents no problem when TTL logic is wired together, but you must keep it in mind when driving TTL with other circuitry. By contrast, CMOS has no input current.Wednesday, 22 August 2012
Special Devices
PROGRAMMABLE OP AMPS
One class of specialized op amp is the micropower programmable op amp. Such devices utilize an external resistor to establish the quiescent operating current for the internal stages. That is, the internal stages are biased at a particular operating current by the selection of an external resistor. Several characteristics of the amplifier are altered by changes in the programming current (JP):

Specific Kinds of Relays
Subminiature Relays
Typical mechanical relays are designed for switching relatively large currents. They come with either dc or ac coils. Dc-actuated relays typically come with excitation-voltage ratings of 6, 12, and 24 V dc, with coil resistances (coil ohms) of about 40, 160, and 650 Ω, respectively. Acactuated relays typically come with excitation-voltage ratings of 110 and 240 V ac, with coil resistances of about 3400 and 13600 Ω, respectively. Switching speeds range from about 10 to 100 ms, and current ratings range from about 2 to 15 A.

Transistor Comparison With Electron Tubes
a. Efficiency and Voltage Requirements.
transistor power efficiency is greater than that of the electron tube because the transistor does not require heater power. In addition, it does not require warm-up time, and it does not require a large de voltage to operate. Other advantages of the transistor are its useful life (b below), its noise level (c below), and its size and construction (d below).Monday, 13 August 2012
5 Main Transistor Functions
a. Amplification.
The transistor may be used as a current, voltage, or power amplifier. For instance, a stronger signal current, may be obtained from a transistor than is fed into it. A signal of 1 milliampere fed into the input circuit of the transistor may appear as 20 milliamperes at its output. Various circuit arrangements provide for various amounts of signal amplification.Sunday, 12 August 2012
Why Digital Storage of Data? Why Not Analog ?
The basic goal of digital memory is to provide a means to store and access binary data: sequences of 1's and 0's. The digital storage of information holds advantages over analog techniques much the same as digital communication of information holds advantages over analog communication. This is not to say that digital data storage is unequivocally superior to analog, but it does address some of the more common problems associated with analog techniques and thus finds immense popularity in both consumer and industrial applications.

War Between AC(TESLA) & DC(EDISON)
You might wonder why ac is even used. Isn’t it a lot more complicated than dc?
Well, ac is easy to generate from turbines, as you’ve just seen. Rotating coil-and magnet devices always produce ac, and in order to get dc from this, rectification and filtering are necessary. These processes can be difficult to achieve with high voltages.

Gears and Types in Robotics
Gears
Gears are essentially levers that work using rotational motion. They transfer one rotational motion into another. The radii of the different gears dictate if the effort required will be greater or less than the load. There are different types of gears, depending on what type of motion has to be transferred. These
are:
