Electronic engineering
audio-frequency feedback
Engineering; Electronic engineering
1. Electrical feedback (positive and/or negative) that affects audio-frequency circuits. 2. acoustic feedback.
circuit noise
Engineering; Electronic engineering
1. Electrical noise generated by a circuit in the absence of an applied signal. 2. In wire telephony, electrical noise as opposed to acoustic noise.
contactor noise
Engineering; Electronic engineering
1. Electrical noise that is the product of make-and-break contact action or fluctuations in conduction when the contacts are closed. 2. Sounds coming directly from contacts that are opening and ...
ac noise
Engineering; Electronic engineering
1. Electromagnetic interference originating in the ac power lines. 2. Electrical noise of a rapidly alternating or pulsating nature.
bilateral symmetry
Engineering; Electronic engineering
1. Exhibiting symmetry, with respect to a vertical line or plane. 2. For a network, having the property that if the input and output are reversed, the circuit behavior remains precisely the same. ...
breakdown
Engineering; Electronic engineering
1. Failure of a circuit or device, caused mainly by excessive voltage, current, or power. A sudden high current, however, does not always indicate failure. 2. avalanche breakdown. 3. The separation ...
burnout
Engineering; Electronic engineering
1. Failure of a conductor or component caused by overheating from excess current or voltage. 2. The open-circuiting of a fuse. 3. Electrical failure of any type.
