Electronic engineering
direct-recording instrument
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A device, such as a graphic recorder, that directly produces a permanent record (such as an inked trace) of the variations of a quantity.
application schematic diagram
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A diagram of pictorial symbols and lines that illustrate the interrelationship of functional circuit blocks in a specific program mode.
dielectric matching plate
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A dielectric plate used in some waveguides for impedance matching.
differential-input amplifier
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A differential amplifier whose output is proportional to the difference between two input signals—each applied between an input terminal and common ground.
differential protective relay
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A differential relay that operates to protect equipment or personnel when the difference between the two actuating quantities reaches a prescribed level.
diffused planar transistor
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A diffused transistor in which emitter, base, and collector electrodes are exposed at the face of the wafer, which has an oxide layer to forestall leakage between surface electrodes.
data selector/multiplexer
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A digital circuit that has several or many input signals, and feeds one of them onto a common line.
