Electronic engineering
air-core inductor
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A coil of wire wound around a hollow cylindrical form or in a loop, designed to introduce inductive reactance into a circuit or system. In practice, the maximum attainable inductance is approximately ...
bucking coil
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A coil placed and positioned so that its magnetic field partially or completely cancels the field of another coil. Troublesome hum fields sometimes are neutralized with such a coil.
concentrated winding
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A coil winding that has a large number of turns in a small space.
bankwound coil
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A coil wound in such a way that most of its turns are not side by side, thus reducing the inherent distributed capacitance.
dynamic transducer
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A coil-and-magnet device that converts mechanical vibration into electric currents, or vice versa. Common examples include most microphones, headphones, and loudspeakers.
delay coincidence circuit
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A coincidence circuit (See and circuit) triggered by two pulses, one of which lags behind the other.
bank
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A collection of usually similar components used in conjunction with each other, usually in a parallel configuration. Some examples are resistor bank, lamp bank, and transformer bank.
