  2. Silver–calcium battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver–calcium_battery

    Silver–calcium alloy batteries are a type of lead–acid battery with grids made from lead–calcium–silver alloy, instead of the traditional lead–antimony alloy or newer lead–calcium alloy. They stand out for its resistance to corrosion and the destructive effects of high temperatures.

    A monitor displays information in visual form, using text and graphics. The portion of the monitor that displays the information is called the screen.

  4. Nonvolatile BIOS memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonvolatile_BIOS_memory

    Other common battery cell types can last significantly longer or shorter periods, such as the smaller CR2016 which will generally last about 40% less time than CR2032. Higher temperatures and longer power-off time will shorten battery cell life. When replacing the battery cell, the system time and CMOS BIOS settings may revert to default values.

  5. Service life - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Service_life

    The difference between service life and predicted life is most clear when considering mission time and reliability in comparison to MTBF and service life. For example, a missile system can have a mission time of less than one minute, service life of 20 years, active MTBF of 20 minutes, dormant MTBF of 50 years, and reliability of 99.9999%.

  6. Calibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calibration

    The formal definition of calibration by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) is the following: "Operation that, under specified conditions, in a first step, establishes a relation between the quantity values with measurement uncertainties provided by measurement standards and corresponding indications with associated measurement uncertainties (of the calibrated instrument or ...

  7. Electric battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_battery

    An electric battery is a source of electric power consisting of one or more electrochemical cells with external connections [1] for powering electrical devices. When a battery is supplying power, its positive terminal is the cathode and its negative terminal is the anode. [2] The terminal marked negative is the source of electrons.

  8. Power-on hours - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-On_Hours

    Power-on hours (POH) is the length of time, usually in hours, [1] that electrical power is applied to a device.. A part of the S.M.A.R.T. attributes (originally known as IntelliSafe, before its introduction to the public domain on 12 May 1995, by the computer hardware and software company Compaq), [2]

  9. High-temperature operating life - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../High-temperature_operating_life

    High-temperature operating life (HTOL) is a reliability test applied to integrated circuits (ICs) to determine their intrinsic reliability. This test stresses the IC at an elevated temperature, high voltage and dynamic operation for a predefined period of time. The IC is usually monitored under stress and tested at intermediate intervals.
