Explanation of Solution

a.

Schematic diagram of AC magnetic motor starter:

The schematic diagram for an across-the-line AC magnetic motor starter is given below:

Explanation:

  • The above given schematic is of a three phase magnetic motor starter as AC signals mostly prefer three phase system...

Explanation of Solution

b.

i) Function of main contact M:

  • The main contact M is placed in series with the motor.
  • It is used to complete the path to the motor.
  • It is a part of the power circuit and is built in such a way that it could handle full load current of motor.

ii) Function of control contact M:

  • The control contact M is placed parallel to the start button.
  • It is provided with an address similar to that of the starter coil M.
  • It is used to keep continuity in path from left end of the rail to starter coil M, even though the start button is released.
  • It is more than enough to handle small amount of current that is needed to energize the coil.

iii) Function of starter coil M:

  • The starter coil M is placed in series to the start button...

Design one system with apply the electrical transducer in the system. Explain about the concept and function of the transducer in the system. (Student can choose any type of transducer).
1. Given ADC0804 and eight LEDS, design an ADC test circuit. Eight LEDS are connected to eight outputs of the ADC, respectively. The output is all 1's when the analog input is 5.1v, and all 0's when the input is Ov. Calculate and make a table indicating analog voltage ranges which correspond to digital number: 00H, 08H, 80H, 88H, and FFH.
Problem 5. Write the Boolean expression (in Sum of Products form) for the logic circuit that will have a 1 output when X = 0, Y = 0, Z = 1 and X = 1, Y = 1, Z = 0, and a zero (0) output for all other input states. Draw the logic diagram for this circuit.
