active filter

Semiconductors; Test equipment

An electronic filter that combines active circuit devices, usually operational amplifiers, with resistors and capacitors. Typically, active filters more closely match ideal ...

broadband emission

Semiconductors; Test equipment

An emission that has a spectral energy distribution that is sufficiently broad, uniform, and continuous to ensure that a measuring receiver's response does not vary significantly ...

anechoic chamber

Semiconductors; Test equipment

An enclosure especially designed with walls that absorb sound or radiation, creating an essentially free-field environment for testing.

time-out

Semiconductors; Test equipment

An error event that occurs after a maximum time interval for an expected event.

monochrome

Semiconductors; Test equipment

An image represented by a single color. Generally, a monochrome image is presented as white on a black background.

flaw detection

Semiconductors; Test equipment

An image-analysis technique that examines an object for unwanted features of unknown shapes at unknown positions.

area analysis

Semiconductors; Test equipment

An image-analysis technique that finds the area in an image that falls within a range of specific gray levels.
