    Then their state can be read by an encoder to determine the delay. In general a digital delay-line based TDC, [19] also known as tapped delay line, contains a chain of cells (e.g. using D-latches in the figure) with well defined delay times . The start signal propagates through this chain and is successively delayed by each cell.

  3. Digital delay line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_delay_line

    A digital delay line (or simply delay line, also called delay filter) is a discrete element in a digital filter, which allows a signal to be delayed by a number of samples. Delay lines are commonly used to delay audio signals feeding loudspeakers to compensate for the speed of sound in air, and to align video signals with accompanying audio ...

  4. Direct torque control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_torque_control

    Direct torque control (DTC) is one method used in variable-frequency drives to control the torque (and thus finally the speed) of three-phase AC electric motors.This involves calculating an estimate of the motor's magnetic flux and torque based on the measured voltage and current of the motor.

  5. Filter (signal processing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filter_(signal_processing)

    In this scheme, a "tapped delay line" reinforces the desired frequencies as the sound waves flow across the surface of the quartz crystal. The tapped delay line has become a general scheme of making high- Q filters in many different ways.

  6. Synchro - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchro

    In a motion picture interlock system, a large motor-driven distributor can drive as many as 20 machines, sound dubbers, footage counters, and projectors. Synchros designed for terrestrial use tend to be driven at 50 or 60 hertz (the mains frequency in most countries), while those for marine or aeronautical use tend to operate at 400 hertz (the ...

  7. HVDC converter station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVDC_converter_station

    HVDC cable termination and DC smoothing reactor on the Baltic Cable HVDC link. The direct current equipment often includes a coil (called a reactor) that adds inductance in series with the DC line to help smooth the direct current. The inductance typically amounts to between 0.1 H and 1 H. The smoothing reactor can have either an air-core or an ...

  8. Analog delay line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog_delay_line

    One example of an analog delay line is a bucket-brigade device. [1] Other types of delay line include acoustic (usually ultrasonic), magnetostrictive, and surface acoustic wave devices. A series of resistor–capacitor circuits (RC circuits) can be cascaded to form a delay. A long transmission line can also provide a delay element. The delay ...

  9. Center tap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_tap

    In analog telecommunications systems center-tapped transformers can be used to provide a DC path around an AC coupled amplifier for signalling purposes. Three wire power distribution can be used, e. g. with 240 VCT to provide two 120 VAC circuits in US/Canada. Low-frequency mains transformers often have center taps.
