asynchronous
Semiconductors; Test equipment
An action that takes place at an arbitrary time, without synchronization to a reference timer or clock.
instrumentation amplifier (IA)
Semiconductors; Test equipment
An amplifier circuit with high-impedance differential inputs and high common-mode rejection.
isolation amplifier
Semiconductors; Test equipment
An amplifier that provides electrically isolated inputs and outputs that let it amplify a differential signal that is superimposed on a high common-
dipole
Semiconductors; Test equipment
An antenna made of a straight conductor (usually not longer than half a wavelength) that is divided at its electrical center and connected to a transmission line.
monopole
Semiconductors; Test equipment
An antenna that consists of a straight conductor and is usually not more than one quarter of a wavelength long. A monopole is mounted immediately above, and at a right angle to, a ground plane.
