  2. Stack light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_light

    Stack light in automated production for in-line quality inspection. Stack lights (also known as signal tower lights, indicator lights, andon lights, warning lights, industrial signal lights, or tower lights) are commonly used on equipment in industrial manufacturing and process control environments to provide visual and audible indicators of a machine's status to machine operators, technicians ...

  3. Zilog Z80 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zilog_Z80

    The Zilog Z80 is an 8-bit microprocessor designed by Zilog that played an important role in the evolution of early computing. Launched in 1976, it was designed to be software-compatible with the Intel 8080, offering a compelling alternative due to its better integration and increased performance.

  4. Stack machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_machine

    In addition, most stack-machine instructions are very simple, made from only one opcode field or one operand field. Thus, stack-machines require very little electronic resources to decode each instruction. A program has to execute more instructions when compiled to a stack machine than when compiled to a register machine or memory-to-memory ...

  6. Sandwich panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sandwich_panel

    A sandwich panel is any structure made of three layers: a low-density core (PIR, mineral wool, XPS), and a thin skin-layer bonded to each side. Sandwich panels are used in applications where a combination of high structural rigidity and low weight is required.

  7. Distribution board - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_board

    A distribution board (also known as panelboard, circuit breaker panel, breaker panel, electric panel, fuse box or DB box) is a component of an electricity supply system that divides an electrical power feed into subsidiary circuits while providing a protective fuse or circuit breaker for each circuit in a common enclosure.

  8. Stack-based memory allocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack-based_memory_allocation

    The stack is often used to store variables of fixed length local to the currently active functions. Programmers may further choose to explicitly use the stack to store local data of variable length. If a region of memory lies on the thread's stack, that memory is said to have been allocated on the stack, i.e. stack-based memory allocation (SBMA).

  9. Electric switchboard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_switchboard

    The U.S. National Electrical Code (NEC) defines a switchboard as "a large single panel, frame, or assembly of panels on which are mounted, on the face, back, or both, switches, over-current and other protective devices, buses, and usually instruments". [2]
