coverage

Engineering; Electronic engineering

1. The area within which a broadcast or communication station can be reliably heard. 2. The shielding effectiveness of a coaxial cable.

bass roll-off

Engineering; Electronic engineering

1. The attenuation of the low-frequency (bass) component in a high-fidelity audio signal. 2. A control that allows adjustable attenuation of the low-frequency component in a high-fidelity audio ...

1. The automatic (usually repetitive) tuning or adjustment of a circuit or system throughout a given frequency range. In a radio receiver, the system can be programmed to pause or stop at occupied ...

binary-to-decimal conversion

Engineering; Electronic engineering

1. The automatic conversion of a number represented by a series of binary pulses into the corresponding decimal number, which then is displayed by a readout device. 2. The arithmetic operation of ...

corner diffraction

Engineering; Electronic engineering

1. The bending of sound waves around a corner. 2. The bending of radiofrequency (RF) energy around an object, when the wavelength is great, compared with the size of the object.

core

Engineering; Electronic engineering

1. The body or form on which a coil or transformer is wound. Can be made of ferromagnetic or dielectric material. The properties depend on the application. 2. core memory.

dendrite

Engineering; Electronic engineering

1. The branching (tree-like) structure formed by some materials, such as semiconductors, as they crystallize. 2. The branching portion of a nerve cell; hence, the corresponding circuit element in ...
