Actuators
• Converts some form of energy into motion such as linear, rotary, and
oscillatory.
Electric Actuator:
• Electric actuator converts electrical energy of Alternating Current (AC) or
Direct Current (DC) form into kinetic energy of mechanical motion.
• Service: set of operations that a layer renders to the layer above it.
• Protocol: set of rules and conventions that allow two or more entities
• Data or transmission rate is the number of bits per second which is decided
by the physical layer.
• Transmission methods:
• Simplex
• Half duplex
• Full duplex
Data link layer
• Receives a packet from the network layer
• Framing: a packet together with MAC (media access control) addresses of source
and destination form a frame.
• MAC address: 12 digits hexadecimal number of Network Interface Card (NIC) of
the computer or laptop.
