timer A device that creates a single timed pulse, or a series of timed pulses with timed intervals between them, is properly known as a multivibrator, although the generic term timer has become much more common and is used here. Three types of multivibrator exist: astable, monostable, and bistable. The behavior of astable multivibrators and […]

digital potentiometer:What It Does,Advantages,How It Works,Variants,Volatile and Nonvolatile Memory,Taper,Data Transfer,SPI,I2C Protocol,Up/Down Protocol,Nonlinear Effects and Data Transfer Too Fast.
digital potentiometer A digital potentiometer is also known as a digitally adjustable potentiometer, a digitally controlled potentiometer, a digitally programmed potentiometer (with acronym DPP), a digpot, or a digipot. The terms are functionally interchangeable. Because the abbreviation pot is often used to describe an analog potentiometer, some people refer to digital potentiometers colloquially as digital […]

ch7 op-amp:What It Does,How It Works,Dual Inputs,Negative Feedback,Op-Amps and Comparators,Variants,Values,How to Use It,Controlling the Gain,Calculating Amplification,Unintentional DC Voltage Amplification,Low-Pass Filter and High-Pass Filter.
op-amp Although a comparator has the same schematic symbol as an op-amp, their applications differ and they are described in separate sections of this encyclopedia. The unabbreviated name for an op-amp is an operationalamplifier, but this term is seldom used. What It Does An op-amp is an operational amplifier consisting of multiple transistors packaged in […]

comparator Although a comparator has the same schematic symbol as an op-amp, their applications differ and they are described in separate sections of this encyclopedia. This entry describes an analog comparator. A digital comparator is very different, being a logic chip that compares two binary numbers that can be referred to as A and B. […]

optocoupler Sometimes known as an optoelectronic coupler, opto-isolator, photocoupler, or optical isolator. A solid-state relay is sometimes referred to as an optocoupler, but in this encyclopedia it has a separate entry. An optocoupler is a relatively simple device consisting of a light source (usually an LED) and a light sensor, both embedded in one package. […]
