Module Description: This module, from Support Center for Microsystems Education (SCME), serves as an introduction to sensors, one component found in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). This module is related to two other modules that cover components in MEMS, transducers and actuators. These...

Module Description: This module, from Support Center for Microsystems Education (SCME), provides an introduction to transducers including "what they are, how they work and how they are used in both macro and micro-size systems." This module is divided into the following four units: Pre-test...

This lecture, published by Columbia Gorge Community College, provides an introduction to transformers. The objective of the lecture is to "examine how the turns ratio of an ideal transformer affects voltage and current, reflected impedance, and power transfer." The recording runs 19:35 minutes in...

The objective of the lecture is to "examine how the turns ratio of an ideal transformer affects voltage and current, reflected impedance, and power transfer." The recording runs 21:00 minutes in...

This resource, provided by Maricopa Advanced Technology Education Center (MATEC), is an animation that shows how mass affects implantation. The magnetic force of the ions can be compared to a pinball machine with three different masses. If the same impulse is applied to each ball, only the one with...
