Power Equation

p=vi,(1.4)
where
p=the power in watts,v=the voltage in volts,i=the current in amperes.
Equation 1.4 shows that the power associated with a basic circuit element is
the product of the current in the element and the voltage across the element.
Therefore, power is a quantity associated with a circuit element, and we have
to determine from our calculation whether power is being delivered to the
circuit element or extracted from it. This information comes from correctly
applying and interpreting the passive sign convention .
If we use the passive sign convention, Eq. 1.4 is correct if the reference
direction for the current is in the direction of the reference voltage drop
across the terminals. Otherwise, Eq. 1.4 must be written with a minus sign. In
other words, if the current reference is in the direction of a reference voltage
rise across the terminals, the expression for the power is
p=−vi.
The algebraic sign of power is based on charge movement through voltage
drops and rises. As positive charges move through a drop in voltage, they
lose energy, and as they move through a rise in voltage, they gain energy.
Figure 1.6 summarizes the relationship between the polarity references for
voltage and current and the expression for power.

How to program 8051 based MCU using Ptroteous Schematic capture and Source code editor to use timers using AT892051 + project files

 This tutorial is dedicated to use a 8051 based Microcontroller core and program it using keil's C51 tools on the Proteus Source code editor.  1- Brief History of 8051 one of the first microprocessors 4004 was invented by Intel Corporation as well as  8085 and 8086 microprocessors back in 1981,shortly after Intel introduced an 8-bit microcontroller called the 8051 . It was referred to as system on a chip because it had 128 bytes of RAM, 4K byte of on-chip ROM, two timers, one serial port, and 4 ports (8-bit wide), all on a single chip. When it became so widespread, Intel allowed other manufacturers to make and market different flavors of 8051 with its code compatible with 8051. It means that if you write your program for one flavor of 8051, it will run on other flavors too, regardless of the manufacturer. This has led to several versions with different speeds and amounts of on-chip RAM. 2- Features of AT892051 Microcontroller Compatible with MCS®-51Products 2K ...

What is the ESP32 VSPI / HSPI

 The ESP32 integrates four SPI peripherals. SPI0 and SPI1 are used to access the ESP32’s attached flash memory and thus are currently not open to users to be used . They share one signal bus via an arbiter. SPI2 and SPI3 are general purpose SPI controllers, sometimes referred to as HSPI and VSPI, respectively. They are open for use. SPI2 and SPI3 have independent signal buses with the same respective names. Each bus has three CS lines to drive up to three SPI slaves.

Industrial Internet Use-Cases

The potential for the Industrial Internet is vast with opportunities spread over wide areas of productivity, such as logistics, aviation, transportation, healthcare, energy production, oil and gas production, and manufacturing. As a result, many use-cases will make industry executives wake up and consider the possibilities of the IIoT. After all, industry only requires a minimal shift in productivity to deliver huge revenue, an example is that even an increase of 1% of productivity can produce huge revenue benefits such as aviation fuel savings. In order to realize these potential profits, industry has to adopt and adjust to the Industrial Internet of Things. However, spotting, identifying, and then strategically targeting the opportunities of the IIoT is not quite as easy as it might seem. It is important, therefore, to create use-cases that are appropriate to vertical businesses. For instance, the requirements of manufacturing differ from logistics, which also differs to healthcare....
