111Hall effect — For the Colombian band, see The Hall Effect (band). The Hall effect is the production of a voltage difference (the Hall voltage) across an electrical conductor, transverse to an electric current in the conductor and a magnetic field perpendicular …
112Multi-Chip Module — A Multi Chip Module (MCM) is a specialized electronic package where multiple integrated circuits (ICs), semiconductor dies or other modules are packaged in such a way as to facilitate their use as a single IC. The MCM itself will often be… …
113Signal integrity — or SI is a measure of the quality of an electrical signal. In digital electronics, a stream of binary values is represented by a voltage (or current) waveform. Over short distances and at low bit rates, a simple conductor can transmit this with… …
114Breadboard — A breadboard (solderless breadboard, protoboard, plugboard) is a reusable solderless device used to build a (generally temporary) prototype of an electronic circuit and for experimenting with circuit designs. This is in contrast to stripboard… …
115Linear regulator — In electronics, a linear regulator is a voltage regulator based on an active device (such as a bipolar junction transistor, field effect transistor or vacuum tube) operating in its linear region (in contrast, a switching regulator is based on a… …
116Multi-chip module — POWER5 MCM with four processors and four 36 MB external L3 cache dies on a ceramic multi chip module. A multi chip module (MCM) is a specialized electronic package where multiple integrated circuits (ICs), semiconductor dies or other discrete… …
117MOSFET — Two power MOSFETs in the surface mount package D2PAK. Operating as switches, each of these components can sustain a blocking voltage of 120 volts in the OFF state, and can conduct a continuous current of 30 amperes in the ON state, dissipating up …
118Sound Blaster — The Sound Blaster logo The Sound Blaster family of sound cards was the de facto standard for consumer audio on the IBM PC compatible system platform, until the widespread transition to Microsoft Windows 95, which standardized the programming… …
119Electronic design automation — (EDA) is the category of tools for designing and producing electronic systems ranging from printed circuit boards (PCBs) to integrated circuits. This is sometimes referred to as ECAD (electronic computer aided design) or just CAD. (Printed… …
120Logic family — In computer engineering, a logic family may refer to one of two related concepts. A logic family of monolithic digital integrated circuit devices is a group of electronic logic gates constructed using one of several different designs, usually… …
