constant-current characteristic
1Current mirror — A current mirror is a circuit designed to copy a current through one active device by controlling the current in another active device of a circuit, keeping the output current constant regardless of loading. The current being copied can be, and… …
2Current source — Figure 1: An ideal current source, I, driving a resistor, R, and creating a voltage V A current source is an electrical or electronic device that delivers or absorbs electric current. A current source is the dual of a voltage source. The term… …
3Constant voltage method — is a type of MPPT algorithm.[1] This method makes use of the fact that the ratio of maximum power point voltage and the open circuit voltage is 0.76.[2] It is the simplest MPPT control method.[3] Algorithm The operating point of the PV array is… …
4Characteristic polynomial — This article is about the characteristic polynomial of a matrix. For the characteristic polynomial of a matroid, see Matroid. For that of a graded poset, see Graded poset. In linear algebra, one associates a polynomial to every square matrix: its …
5Boltzmann constant — For the constant pertaining to energy of black body radiation see Stefan–Boltzmann constant Values of k[1] Units 1.3806488(13)×10−23 J K−1 8.617332 …
6Diode — Figure 1: Closeup of a diode, showing the square shaped semiconductor crystal (black object on left) …
7analysis — /euh nal euh sis/, n., pl. analyses / seez /. 1. the separating of any material or abstract entity into its constituent elements (opposed to synthesis). 2. this process as a method of studying the nature of something or of determining its… …
8electrochemical reaction — ▪ chemistry Introduction any process either caused or accompanied by the passage of an electric current and involving in most cases the transfer of electrons between two substances one a solid and the other a liquid. Under ordinary… …
9Tube sound — (or valve sound) is the characteristic sound associated with a vacuum tube based audio amplifiers. Some audiophiles prefer the sound that is produced by the distortion characteristics of tube based amplifiers. The audible significance of tube… …
10RLC circuit — A series RLC circuit: a resistor, inductor, and a capacitor An RLC circuit (or LCR circuit) is an electrical circuit consisting of a resistor, an inductor, and a capacitor, connected in series or in parallel. The RLC part of the name is due to… …
