  DHRUV64: India’s First 1.0 GHz, 64‑bit Dual‑Core Microprocessor Introduction India has reached a major milestone in its semiconductor journey with the launch of DHRUV64, the country’s first fully indigenous 1.0 GHz, 64‑bit dual‑core microprocessor. Developed by the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C‑DAC) under the Microprocessor Development Programme (MDP), DHRUV64 represents a significant step towards technological self‑reliance. Designed and developed within India, DHRUV64 strengthens the nation’s capability in advanced chip design and provides a reliable, homegrown processor platform for both strategic and commercial applications. Key Takeaways D HRUV64 is India’s first indigenous 64‑bit, dual‑core microprocessor operating at 1.0 GHz. It strengthens India’s domestic processor development ecosystem. National initiatives such as Digital India RISC‑V (DIR‑V) have played a key role in supporting the design, testing, and prototyping of indigenous chips. Following the s...

  Drying-Out Method of Transformer – Complete Guide ⚡💧 Moisture is one of the most dangerous enemies of a transformer. It drastically reduces insulation resistance, lowers dielectric strength of oil, accelerates ageing of paper insulation, and can lead to failures during operation. Therefore, drying-out the transformer —especially new units or those kept out of service for long—is a critical commissioning step. This article explains the methods, procedures, drying-out duration, and purification techniques in a simple and professional manner. 😊📘 ⭐ What Is the Need for Drying-Out a Transformer? The primary challenge in drying out a transformer is not drying the oil, because oil can be filtered easily. The real difficulty lies in removing moisture absorbed by the windings and insulation 🧵💧. These materials are hygroscopic and absorb moisture from the atmosphere. If left untreated: 👉 Insulation resistance drops 👉 Dielectric strength reduces 👉 Partial discharge risk in...

Understanding Distribution Boards (DB): Components, Wiring, and Types 🔌 What is a Distribution Board? A Distribution Board (DB) is a vital component of an electrical supply system that divides the electrical power feed into subsidiary circuits. It also provides protective fuses or circuit breakers for each circuit within a single enclosure. In simple terms, it distributes electricity safely throughout a building while protecting circuits from overload and faults. A standard DB includes: A main switch (DP or TPN MCB) One or more Residual Current Devices (RCD/RCCB/RCBO) for leakage and overload protection Outgoing Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCBs) connected to different loads. ⚙️ Parts of a Distribution Board (DB Parts) A DB typically consists of the following sections: 1. Earth Link / Earth Bar – Connects all earth wires from sub-circuits. 2. Neutral Link – Common connection point for all neutral wires. 3. Bus Bar – Distributes the phase supply to all MCBs. 4. Incomer – The main incomi...
