Abstract | A survey of the typical construction methods and style concepts that were used during the past seven decades provides an index of progress. From rather haphazard constructions that prevailed during the first quarter of this century, the industry soon reached a period when mass production of radio equipment was possible, whereupon the role of the product engineer, who takes the concepts and ideas of the scientists and devises suitable designs that are effective, reliable, and producible, and of the production engineer, who handles the problems attending the manufacturing of these designs, became important. In this review, the design techniques of several eras will be noted, particularly those that influenced the utility of the equipment. The many developments leading up to new processes, the ever-changing objectives, closer tolerances and increasing complexity taking place during the second quarter of the century, lead us into the space age with the emergence of the transistor, missiles, computers and automation. Printed-wiring and other assembly techniques are described, from the simple manual operations to the programmed automatic insertion of component parts. The roles of dip soldering and wirewrap, flexible cabling, and standardization are recounted. The progress of miniaturization is reviewed, from using conventional parts through various methods up to the micromodule and other arrangements with different form factors and integration methods. Finally, more sophisticated microminiaturization approaches¿thin films, and fabrication of solid-state circuits by forming, "growing," and electron-microscope techniques. Automatic testing, dynamics, cooling, and audio-visual aids are touched upon. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
