  2. Ringing (signal) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringing_(signal)

    In electrical circuits, ringing is an oscillation of a voltage or current.Ringing can be undesirable because it causes extra current to flow, thereby wasting energy and causing extra heating of the components; it can cause unwanted electromagnetic radiation to be emitted [citation needed]; it can increase settling time for the desired final state; and it may cause unwanted triggering of ...

  3. Switching noise jitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switching_noise_jitter

    When light loads are present, PWM efficiencies degrade, so the converter switches to modulation of pulse frequency, typically referred to as pulse-frequency mode (PFM) for increased efficiency. Nevertheless, the dual-mode approach has multiple disadvantages: it creates additional transient noise and momentary fluctuations in output voltage, as ...

  4. Network analyzer (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_analyzer_(electrical)

    ZVA40 vector network analyzer from Rohde & Schwarz.. A network analyzer is an instrument that measures the network parameters of electrical networks.Today, network analyzers commonly measure s–parameters because reflection and transmission of electrical networks are easy to measure at high frequencies, but there are other network parameter sets such as y-parameters, z-parameters, and h ...

  5. Blocking oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocking_oscillator

    The collapsing flux induces primary current to flow out of the primary toward the now-open switch i.e. to flow in the same direction it was flowing when the switch was closed. For current to flow out of the switch-end of the primary, the primary voltage at the switch end must be positive relative to its other end that is at the supply voltage V b.

    A switch that selects which transformer tap is connected to an external circuit; may be manually operated, or power operated; some types can be operated under load for voltage regulation purposes. technical drawing Drawings intended to convey information for construction, operation or maintenance of a system or equipment. telecommunication

  7. Off-hook tone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Off-hook_tone

    Some central office switches in the United States, notably older GTD-5 EAX systems, utilize a single frequency tone, 480 Hz, known as High Tone for this purpose. In either case, the tone is substantially louder than any other signal transmitted over a copper POTS circuit; loud enough to be heard across a room from an unused off-hook telephone.

  8. Ethernet Ring Protection Switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_Ring_Protection...

    In ERPS there is a central node called RPL Owner Node which blocks one of the ports to ensure that there is no loop formed for the Ethernet traffic. The link blocked by the RPL owner node is called the Ring Protection Link or RPL. The node at the other end of the RPL is known as RPL Neighbor Node. It uses R-APS control messages to coordinate ...

  9. Automatic test switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_test_switching

    Automatic test system switching test equipment allows for high-speed testing of a device or devices in a test situation, where strict sequences and combinations of switching must be observed. By automating the process in this way, the possibility of test errors and inaccuracies is minimized, and only systematic errors would generally be ...
