Do you know that?

Our Life is so busy that we often don't have time to look at smaller things that are actually quite questionable but interesting. We are here today to have a look at some of those things :) Here we go!!! Wi-fi Symbol Secret: We all use WiFi, actually it has become a Basic Need. But, have you ever imagine why does your Wi-fi symbols looks like that? No? We'll tell you. First of why is it called so? The word WiFi is used as a synonym to WLAN, the newtork configuration that it uses. WiFi was introduced by WiFi Alliance, the term WiFi was commercially used in August '99 it was coined by brand-consulting firm Interbrand Corporation. The Wi-Fi Alliance had hired Interbrand to determine a name that was "a little catchier than 'IEEE 802.11b Direct Sequence' Now, why is the symbol so? The answer is quite simple. When first WiFi was found, the technology used was based on Radar or Radio Waves that transmit from a single point to many. Thus, if we closely obse...

Our guide to Home Automation

So, everyone's now interested in automating the things, even at home. Yeah that's right!!! No one wants to get up to switch on a TV from their sofa or get the lights off when you're lying down on bed. This is now becoming a basic need of a SMART home. So, how do we actually automate the things? Do we use any kind of new appliances? What goes on at the back end? What technology do they use? How much does it cost? And which one is the best to go for? So many questions ??? We have the answer, read ahead to clear all your doubts. 1. The Appliance part: Of course it's obvious that your old switches won't operate wireless, you need to change them up or create a network configuration that is suited with your old ones. 2. The Technology and back end part: This is the part to understand and note down. There are many many technologies that can go through home automation and get your home wireless, let's look at some of them in detail (the popular ones are e...

Programs -- Python

Following are some codes that we have tried up on python. Do try yourself. Edit --> Run --> Enjoy 1. Dictionary -- Enter name get number :) 2. Area Calculator -- get areas of all geometric structures in one code 3. Quiz --  A quiz to try out for electronic geeks 4. Odd numbers -- Do check one line code for odd numbers :)

Python or C? What will raise your resume level .

Completed engineering? Placed in an IT company or trying for jobs??? So many questions, but one important one. Which language should one specify in the resume so has to get more attention of recruiters? Today's job market has only IT companies as the dominant recruiters. So, we'll always like to learn basics of any programming language and specify it in our resume. There are a number of languages available to study, but one has to be very careful while choosing one from them. Some of them are: 1. C 2. C++ 3. Java 4. Python 5. Pearl 6. Ruby ... etc.... All these names 4,5,6 Sounds exciting? Don't they ? :) Always one will go for "C", the creator language. But we'll prefer to go for the 4th one. The Python. C is the first language created but that doesn't means you need to study it first. Let's see what Python and C have when they are compared. 1. Ease --> Python syntax is very easy and any begineer can easily wrap up the basic pyth...

Let's speak Tkinter

Python provides various options for developing graphical user interfaces (GUIs) And one of easiest is 'Tkinter'. Tkinter is the Python interface to the Tk GUI toolkit shipped with Python. Let's just have a look at below example: import tkinter top = tkinter.Tk() top.mainloop() Run this code in your Python IDLE and see what happens :) This is our next step towards the world of PyLove PYTHON GUI PROGRAMMING .... here we come ~~~~  :) :)

VLSI viva compilation

All the below stuff is a compiled post from google of all the viva questions asked on vlsi and avlsi , do take a look  I've actually made this for me :P ( Last minute Reading Stuff :) ;) ) 1. Why does the present VLSI circuits use MOSFETs instead of BJTs? Compared to BJTs, MOSFETs can be made very small as they occupy very small silicon area on IC chip and are relatively simple in terms of manufacturing. Moreover digital and memory ICs can be implemented with circuits that use only MOSFETs i.e. no resistors, diodes, etc. 2. What are the various regions of operation of MOSFET? How are those regions used? MOSFET has three regions of operation: the cut-off region, the triode region, and the saturation region. The cut-off region and the triode region are used to operate as switch. The saturation region is used to operate as amplifier. 3. What is threshold voltage? The value of voltage between Gate and Source i.e. V GS at which a sufficient number of mobile e...

It's Time for some Py

Hi friends, bored of doing the things in lame C and java way ? Let's do it in more fun way .... What I have here is a basic intro to you all to a language called "Python" We will be going through the basics of all syntax and brushing up all of Python Basics here.. Follow my page up there .... To get start going .!!!!
