Electronic engineering
discrete circuit
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A circuit comprised of discrete components, such as resistors, capacitors, diodes, and transistors, not fabricated into an integrated circuit.
current lag
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A circuit condition in which current variations are delayed by up to 180 degrees of phase relative to voltage variations. Compare current lead.
current lead
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A circuit condition in which current variations occur earlier than voltage variations by up to 180 degrees of phase. Compare current lag.
collinear antenna
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A broadside directional antenna consisting of two or more half-wave radiators; the current is kept in phase in each section by quarter-wave stubs between each radiating section. The radiators are ...
bus driver
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A buffering device designed to increase the driving capability of a microprocessor, which itself might be capable of driving no more than a single load.
coherent bundle
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A bundle of optical fibers, such that the individual fibers are in the same relative positions at either end of the bundle.
button capacitor
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A button-shaped ceramic or silvered- mica fixed capacitor. Because of its disk shape and mode of terminal connection, it offers very low internal inductance.
