  2. Gain (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gain_(electronics)

    A gain greater than one (greater than zero dB), that is, amplification, is the defining property of an active device or circuit, while a passive circuit will have a gain of less than one. [4] The term gain alone is ambiguous, and can refer to the ratio of output to input voltage (voltage gain), current (current gain) or electric power (power ...

  3. Common base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_base

    Nonetheless, the voltage gain is appreciable even for small loads: according to the table, with R S = r E the gain is A v = g m R L / 2. For larger source impedances, the gain is determined by the resistor ratio R L / R S, and not by the transistor properties, which can be an advantage where insensitivity to temperature or transistor variations ...

  4. Current-mode logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current-mode_logic

    Current mode logic (CML), or source-coupled logic (SCL), is a digital design style used both for logic gates and for board-level digital signaling of digital data.. The basic principle of CML is that current from a constant current generator is steered between two alternate paths depending on whether a logic zero or logic one is being represented.

  5. Virtual ground - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_ground

    In electronics, a virtual ground (or virtual earth) is a node of a circuit that is maintained at a steady reference potential, without being connected directly to the reference potential. In some cases the reference potential is considered to be that of the surface of the earth, and the reference node is called "ground" or "earth" as a consequence.

  6. Effective radiated power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_radiated_power

    Dipole gain is the ratio of the power density received from the antenna in the direction of its maximum radiation to the power density , received from a lossless half-wave dipole antenna in the direction of its maximum radiation = , The decibel gain relative to a dipole (dB d) is given by = ⁡ ( , )

  7. Operational amplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operational_amplifier

    In the non-inverting amplifier on the right, the presence of negative feedback via the voltage divider R f, R g determines the closed-loop gain A CL = V out / V in. Equilibrium will be established when V out is just sufficient to pull the inverting input to the same voltage as V in. The voltage gain of the entire circuit is thus 1 + R f / R g.

  8. Miller effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller_effect

    where is the voltage gain of the inverting amplifier (positive) and is the feedback capacitance. Although the term Miller effect normally refers to capacitance, any impedance connected between the input and another node exhibiting gain can modify the amplifier input impedance via this effect.
