Electronic engineering

color generator

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A special radio-frequency (RF) signal generator to adjust or troubleshoot a color television receiver. The color signals it delivers are identical to those produced by a broadcast station.

dot generator

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A special radio-frequency (RF) signal generator used to produce a pattern of red, green, and blue dots on the screen of a color television receiver.

damper winding

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A special short-circuited motor winding that opposes pulsation or rotation of the magnetic field.

constant-voltage transformer

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A special transformer used to reduce variations in power-line voltage. A capacitor in the device causes a winding to resonate at the line frequency (e.g., 60 Hz). This tends to maintain a more ...

air-dielectric coax

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A special type of coaxial cable designed to have minimum loss. The space between inner and outer conductors is mostly empty (i.e., air-filled). Some such cables are sealed and filled with an inert ...

dc generator amplifier

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A special type of generator that provides power amplification. The input signal energizes the field winding of a constant-speed machine; because the output voltage is proportional to field flux and ...

bar generator

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A special type of radio-frequency signal generator that produces horizontal or vertical bars on the screen of a television receiver. It is used in adjustment of horizontal and vertical linearity.
