double-amplitude-modulation multiplier

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A modulating system in which a carrier is amplitude-modulated first by one signal and then by a second signal. The resulting signal is fed to a detector, the output of which contains the product of ...

double-sideband system

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A modulation or demodulation system utilizing both sidebands, with or without the carrier.

capacitive coupling

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A means of coupling between circuits that uses a series capacitor for direct-current blocking. The signal passes through the capacitor, but the blocking effect allows different bias voltages to be ...

diode isolation

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A means of insulating an integrated- circuit chip from its substrate. The chip is surrounded by a pn junction that is reverse-biased. This prevents conduction between the chip and the substrate.

counterpoise

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A means of obtaining a radiofrequency (RF) ground by using a grid of wires or tubing in a plane parallel to the earth’s surface or to average terrain. The radius of the grid is usually at least 0.25 ...

capture ratio

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A measure of frequency-modulation (FM) tuner selectivity: The amplitude difference, in decibels, between unwanted signals and the one being tuned in.

dynamic stability

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A measure of the ability of a robot to maintain its balance while in motion.
