Electronic engineering
comeback
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A spurious response in a bandpass or band-rejection filter, at a frequency well above or below the passband or stopband.
dark-spot signal
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A spurious signal generated by some camera tubes, arising from secondaryemission effects.
audio squelch
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A squelch circuit that operates only on the audio channel of a receiver.
coherent reference
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A stable reference frequency with which other signals are phase locked for coherence.
carbon-film resistor
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A stable resistor whose resistance element is a film of carbon, vacuum-deposited on a substrate, such as a ceramic.
coaxial-tank oscillator
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A stable, self-excited oscillator that uses a coaxial tank. Also see concentric-line oscillator.
concentric-line oscillator
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A stable, self-excited oscillator whose frequency-determining tank consists principally of a section of concentric (coaxial) line. Used primarily at ultra-high frequencies (UHF).
