  2. Antenna tuner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_tuner

    Transformers, autotransformers, and baluns are sometimes incorporated into the design of narrow band antenna tuners and antenna cabling connections. They will all usually have little effect on the resonant frequency of either the antenna or the narrow band transmitter circuits, but can widen the range of impedances that the antenna tuner can match, and/or convert between balanced and ...

  3. Motor soft starter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_soft_starter

    A motor soft starter is a device used with AC electrical motors to temporarily reduce the load and torque in the powertrain and electric current surge of the motor during start-up. This reduces the mechanical stress on the motor and shaft, as well as the electrodynamic stresses on the attached power cables and electrical distribution network ...

  4. Op amp integrator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Op_amp_integrator

    Referring to the above diagram, if the op-amp is assumed to be ideal, then the voltage at the inverting (-) input is held equal to the voltage at the non-inverting (+) input as a virtual ground. The input voltage passes a current V in / R 1 {\displaystyle V_{\text{in}}/{R_{1}}} through the resistor producing a compensating current flow through ...

  5. Switched-mode power supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched-mode_power_supply

    With a switched-mode PSU the switching frequency can be chosen to keep the noise out of the circuits working frequency band (e.g., for audio systems above the range of human hearing) Electronic noise at the input terminals: Causes harmonic distortion to the input AC, but relatively little or no high-frequency noise.

  6. 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 ...

  7. Motor–generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor–generator

    An Alexanderson alternator is a motor-driven, high-frequency alternator which provides radio frequency power. In the early days of radio communication, the high frequency carrier wave had to be produced mechanically using an alternator with many poles driven at high speeds. Alexanderson alternators produced RF up to 600 kHz, with large units ...

  8. Load bank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_bank

    Reactance is a circuit element's opposition to an alternating current, caused by the buildup of electric or magnetic fields in the element due to the current and is the "imaginary" component of impedance, or the resistance to AC signals at a certain frequency. Capacitive reactance is equal to 1/(2⋅π⋅f⋅C), and inductive reactance is equal ...

  9. Circle diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_diagram

    The circle diagram can be drawn for alternators, synchronous motors, transformers, induction motors. The Heyland diagram is an approximate representation of a circle diagram applied to induction motors, which assumes that stator input voltage, rotor resistance and rotor reactance are constant and stator resistance and core loss are zero.
