  2. Korndörfer autotransformer starter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korndörfer_Autotransformer...

    Korndorfer starter with motor (M), autotransformer (AT) and three switches (1, 2, 3) In electrical engineering, the Korndorfer starter is a technique used for reduced voltage soft starting of induction motors. The circuit uses a three-phase autotransformer and three three-phase switches. This motor starting method has been updated and improved ...

  3. The Millionaire (calculator) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Millionaire_(calculator)

    The manufacturing cost of Bollée's machine was too high and the production was discontinued after a few units. The Millionaire was built with the same target of direct mechanical multiplication in mind. [14] In first decades of 20th century two other machines with direct multiplication were produced: the Moon-Hopkins [15] and Kuhrt-US. [16]

  4. Direct-conversion receiver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct-conversion_receiver

    A direct-conversion receiver (DCR), also known as a homodyne, synchrodyne, zero intermediate frequency or zero-IF receiver, is a radio receiver design that demodulates the incoming radio signal using synchronous detection driven by a local oscillator whose frequency is identical to, or very close to the carrier frequency of the intended signal.

  5. Frequency mixer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_mixer

    Frequency mixer symbol. In electronics, a mixer, or frequency mixer, is an electrical circuit that creates new frequencies from two signals applied to it.In its most common application, two signals are applied to a mixer, and it produces new signals at the sum and difference of the original frequencies.

  6. Software calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_calculator

    Formula weight calculator: The input is a chemical molecular formula, using the periodic-table symbols and notation, and there is a button to work out the percentages of its constituents. Astronomical calculator: The input is a date and one or multiple celestial bodies (usually the sun, moon, planets, planetoids or comets). The program ...

  7. Radio receiver design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_receiver_design

    Tuning the receiver involves changing the frequency of the local oscillator, with further processing of the signal (especially in relation to increasing the receiver) conveniently done at a single frequency (the IF frequency) thus requiring no further tuning for different stations. A schematic of a superhet AM receiver. Note that the radio ...

  8. Oudin coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oudin_coil

    Oudin coil used for medical electrotherapy, 1907, and a schematic diagram of its circuit (left).. An Oudin coil, also called an Oudin oscillator or Oudin resonator, is a resonant transformer circuit that generates very high voltage, high frequency alternating current (AC) electricity at low current levels, [1] [2] [3] used in the obsolete forms of electrotherapy around the turn of the 20th ...

  9. RF chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RF_Chain

    An RF chain is a cascade of electronic components and sub-units which may include amplifiers, filters, mixers, attenuators and detectors. [1] It can take many forms, for example, as a wide-band receiver-detector for electronic warfare (EW) applications, as a tunable narrow-band receiver for communications purposes, as a repeater in signal distribution systems, or as an amplifier and up ...
