How does a VCR vary its resistance with a control voltage?
1 Answer
As of my last update in September 2021, VCRs (Video Cassette Recorders) do not typically vary their resistance with a control voltage. VCRs are analog devices that use electromechanical components for video recording and playback, and they do not have a direct relationship between control voltage and resistance.
The main components of a VCR include the video head drum, which contains the rotating video heads that read and write data to the tape, and various motors that control the tape transport. These motors are usually driven by analog control circuits that receive signals from the VCR's control panel or remote control. The control circuits adjust the speed and direction of the motors to move the tape and control the various functions of the VCR, such as play, pause, rewind, and fast forward.
The control circuits in a VCR typically use operational amplifiers, transistors, resistors, and other analog components, but these are not designed to vary their resistance with a control voltage. Instead, they use the control voltage to adjust the bias points and operating conditions of the circuit elements to achieve the desired functionality.
It's possible that you might be referring to a different type of electronic device that does vary its resistance with a control voltage. If that's the case, please provide more context or specify the device you are interested in, and I'll do my best to provide relevant information.
