Electronic engineering
corona shield
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A shield surrounding a high-voltage point to prevent corona by redistributing the electric flux.
bubble shift register
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A shift register that uses a magnetic bubble (See bubble memory) that can be moved sequentially from electrode to electrode on a wafer.
core shift register
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A shift register that uses special magnetic cores as bistable components. See core memory.
dead short
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A short circuit with extremely low (virtually no) resistance from dc into the radiofrequency spectrum.
cable tie
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A short piece of wire or plastic that holds wires or cables in a bundle.
burst transmission
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A short transmission at high speed. This method of transmission saves time, but increases the necessary bandwidth of a signal by the same factor as the ratio of the high speed to the original speed.
baby monitor
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A short-range radio transmitter and receiver that can be used to listen at a distance to the sounds in an infant’s room. The transmitter contains a sensitive microphone, a whip antenna, and a power ...
