  2. Wiring diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiring_diagram

    An automotive wiring diagram, showing useful information such as crimp connection locations and wire colors. These details may not be so easily found on a more schematic drawing. A wiring diagram is a simplified conventional pictorial representation of an electrical circuit. It shows the components of the circuit as simplified shapes, and the ...

  4. Touch switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Touch_switch

    A touch switch is a type of switch that only has to be touched by an object to operate. It is used in many lamps and wall switches that have a metal exterior as well as on public computer terminals. A touchscreen includes an array of touch switches on a display. A touch switch is the simplest kind of tactile sensor.

  5. Inductive sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_sensor

    An inductive sensor is a device that uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to detect or measure objects. An inductor develops a magnetic field when an electric current flows through it; alternatively, a current will flow through a circuit containing an inductor when the magnetic field through it changes.

  6. Zero speed switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_speed_switch

    Zero speed switches (ZSS) also known as Speed Actuating Sensing Switches [1] are used to detect whether a rotating shaft is turning (even at very slow speeds) [2] in various machines, conveyors, power plants, and in industries involving the production of cement, sugar, textiles, paper, etc. Zero speed switches mainly use electromechanical, electronic, or magnetic proximity technologies.

  7. Wavelength selective switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavelength_Selective_Switching

    A further array-based switch engine uses an array of individual reflective MEMS mirrors to perform the necessary beam steering (Figure 5 [5] (to be uploaded). These arrays are typically a derivative of the Texas Instruments DLP range of spatial light modulators. In this case, the angle of the MEMs mirrors is changed to deflect the beam.

  8. Twilight switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twilight_switch

    A twilight switch is an electronic component that allows the automatic activation of a lighting circuit when natural light drops in a given environment. Among a large number of uses, the most common is to enable automatic lighting of streets, roads, highways, roads, gardens, courtyards, etc., when sunlight drops below a certain level (e.g.: a ...

  9. Hall effect sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_effect_sensor

    The range of a given feedthrough sensor may also be extended upward and downward by appropriate wiring. To extend the range to lower currents, multiple turns of the current-carrying wire may be made through the opening, each turn adding to the sensor output the same quantity; when the sensor is installed onto a printed circuit board, the turns ...
