7- The Catalyst

In science, the term Catalyst is used to denote the material that boosts the chemical reaction. It does not affect the chemicals that were to be reacted nor the output reaction. It just increases the speed of reaction. Now, is there any catalyst in the field of electronics?

The catalyst is used to speed up the reaction thereby decreasing the time delay to get the output. Ever wondered what is there for any electronic devices to catalyze or simply to make it work faster?


Many people will say that more is the RAM, more is its speed, some will say the speed depends on the processor used in it like a quad core or octa-core processor.
Increasing RAM does not increase the speed of device, rather it allows you to use as many applications. Regarding processor, Octa-core chips have double the number of processor cores of quad-core chips, right? Yes. So they’re pretty much twice as powerful, right? No. Not even close. It’s not just about the numbers here.


The microprocessor here works on the programming done as per the user's requirements. As the number of applications increases, the processor feels the burden of keeping the apps in running condition and hence focuses its power and internal ROM on the applications rather than the device.

It even consumes twice the normal power just to make sure that device works at normal speed, but lesser is known that speed increases the device temperature and leads to blasting of many devices. Some of its examples are Samsung and Apple.

As far as we are concerned about the smart phones, catalyst in it is POWER SAVING MODE. If you find your phone to be working slow, or in a irrational manner then, you can put it to power saving mode for at least 10minutes and you can surely experience the change in its speed. Even restarting the device could work but takes more time thereby restricting the user to use necessary services like calling and messaging(just text messages and not chatting applications) for some time.

For now, the scientists in this world are trying their best to introduce the catalyst in the electronic device so as when there is the need of boosting the device, catalyst can be used. The introduction of it in the field of electronics can prove milestone and even help to increase the device stability, improvised performance and precised output.

19. Impact of COVID-19 on Technology and Cyber Security.

The world is experiencing the economic breakdown and is trying to cope up with basic amenities required for the people to survive. The COVID-19 has even challenged the economy and is affecting all the sectors. Lockdown has proved to be a solution to stop the virus transmission but is affecting the industry. But what are its impacts on technology?  The effects of COVID-19 are having a significant impact on the technology sector, affecting raw materials supply, disrupting the electronics value chain, and causing an inflationary risk on products. More positively, the disruption has caused an acceleration of remote working, and a rapid focus on evaluating and de-risking the end-to-end value chain. In addition, potential carbon emission reductions could result in renewed focus on sustainability practices. This article considers the shifting landscape across a number of areas. The main impact will be on the cybersecurity and even on supply chain. As due to this pandemic s...

17- QR code vs SnapTag

Are you tired of seeing those ugly black and white square blots everywhere you look? Well now there is a solution; SnapTags.  SnapTags are raising the bar for interactive communication. SnapTags work like QR codes but give you much more. Instead of using a 2-D barcode, you now are able to use your very own logo that’s much more visually appealing to the consumer. This branding tool is extremely powerful for initiating consumer engagement at which the consumer is likely triggered by an emotional response. QR code (abbreviated from Quick Response Code) is the trademark for a type of matrix barcode. A barcode is a machine-readable optical label that contains information about the item to which it is attached. SnapTag provides trackable, device-aware, fully programmable QR codes that can deliver the best experience in any situation, for everyone. How is the look of snaptag? Well, here it is! Sample model This look is the basic snaptag model of this blog. This tag can be...

18- Basics of Telecommunication

Ever wondered what actually is Telecom? What are its components? How they work? Read below for the same. What is Telecom? Telecommunications ("telecom") is a general term for a vast array of technologies that transmit and receive voice, data, and video information over varying distances through electronic means. The utilization of these networks and technologies varies greatly from organization to organization and may include:     Local, long distance, and toll-free voice traffic     Internet access     Video conferencing     LAN's and WAN's     Call centres     Converged networks (voice, data, wireless) How do mobile phones work? Mobile phones operate within a network based on services which are provided by Telecommunications Service Providers (TSPs). In short, mobile phones search for signals in order to operate. This is enabled through cell towers, which are cellular telephone sites w...
