Electronic engineering

double-extended Zepp antenna

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A horizontal, collinear, center-fed antenna, in which each section measures 0.65 wavelength. This antenna gives increased gain over that of the Zepp and double Zepp (See double zepp antenna).

conical horn

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A horn (antenna, loudspeaker, or sound pickup) having the general shape of a cone: the cross-sectional area varies directly as the square of the horn’s axial length.

compound horn

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A horn reflector used for transmission of microwave energy. The faces of the horn approach four geometric plane surfaces as the distance from the center increases.

domestic induction heater

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A household cooking utensil heated by currents induced in it. A primary coil (connected to the power line) is imbedded in the utensil, which acts as a short-circuited secondary coil.

drip-tight enclosure

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A housing designed to prevent entry of rain, snow, and dust; it also prevents accidental contact with the enclosed apparatus or machinery.

digital HIC

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A hybrid integrated circuit (HIC) designed for digital applications. Also see digital integrated circuit.

compatible integrated circuit

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A hybrid integrated circuit (IC) that has an active element inside the integrated structure and a passive element deposited on its insulated outer surface.
