voltage drop across a resistance
31Switch — For other uses, see Switch (disambiguation). Electrical switches. Top, left to right: circuit breaker, mercury switch, wafer switch, DIP switch, surface mount switch, reed switch. Bottom, left to right: wall switch (U.S. style), miniature toggle… …
32Multimeter — A digital multimeter A multimeter or a multitester, also known as a VOM (Volt Ohm meter), is an electronic measuring instrument that combines several measurement functions in one unit. A typical multimeter may include features such as the ability …
33Active rectification — is a technique for improving efficiency of Diode Bridge rectifiers. It consists of replacing a diode with a transistor (usually a power MOSFET). Applications In Full Bridge Rectifiers, the voltage drop of a diode (typically around 0.7V for a… …
34Operational amplifier — A Signetics μa741 operational amplifier, one of the most successful op amps. An operational amplifier ( op amp ) is a DC coupled high gain electronic voltage amplifier with a differential input and, usually, a single ended output.[1] An op amp… …
35Widlar current source — A Widlar current source is a modification of the basic two transistor current mirror that incorporates an emitter degeneration resistor for only the output transistor, enabling the current source to generate low currents using only moderate… …
36Power network design (IC) — In integrated circuits, electrical power is distributed to the components of the chip over a network of conductors on the chip. Power network design (IC) includes the analysis and design of such networks. As in all engineering, this involves… …
37Electrical ballast — Choke ballast (inductor) used in older lighting. This example is from a tanning bed. Requires a lamp starter (below) and capacitor …
38Fuse (electrical) — A miniature time delay fuse used to protect electronic equipment, rated 0.3 amperes at 250 volts. 1.25 inches (about 32 mm) long …
39Negative impedance converter — The negative impedance converter (NIC) is a one port op amp circuit acting as a negative load which injects energy into circuits in contrast to an ordinary load that consumes energy from them. This is achieved by adding or subtracting excessive… …
40Thermocouple — plugged to a multimeter displaying room temperature in °C. A thermocouple is a device consisting of two different conductors (usually metal alloys) that produce a voltage proportional to a temperature difference between either end of the pair of… …
