Electronic engineering
digital signal
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A signal having an integral number of discrete levels or values, as opposed to a signal whose levels or values vary over a continuous range.
active mixer
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A signal mixer using one or more active components, such as transistors or integrated circuits. An active circuit provides amplification, input-output isolation, and high input impedance, in addition ...
compensation signal
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A signal recorded on a tape track containing computer data, to ensure that the tape plays back at exactly the correct speed at all times.
disconnect signal
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A signal sent over a telephone line, ending the connection.
analog signal
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A signal that attains an infinite number of different amplitude levels, as opposed to one that can attain only a finite number of levels as a function of time.
alternate-mark inversion signal
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A signal that conveys bits in which the successive signals are of opposite polarity (positive, then negative, then positive, etc.). They are equal in absolute value amplitude.
double-bounce signal
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A signal that is received after having been reflected twice.
