In computing, a class driver is a type of hardware device driver that can operate a large number of different devices of a broadly similar type.

This device is broadly used in the European comic tradition, the Belgian artist Hergé's The Adventures of Tintin series being a good example.

Other navies use different helicopters aboard different escort ships with a broadly similar system of a probe or grappling device lowered on a steel cable into a flight deck grating, before winching itself down while secured to the deck of a pitching vessel in heavy seas.

The device consists of a series of beads on parallel wires arranged in three separate rows.

A symbol input device usually consists of a number of switches that are polled at regular intervals to see which switches are pressed.

The device used in distillation, sometimes referred to as a still, consists at a minimum of a reboiler or pot in which the source material is heated, a condenser in which the heated vapour is cooled back to the liquid state, and a receiver in which the concentrated or purified liquid, called the distillate, is collected.

* Vagus nerve stimulation ( US manufacturer Cyberonics ) consists of a computerized electrical device similar in size, shape and implant location to a heart pacemaker that connects to the vagus nerve in the neck.

* Responsive neurostimulator system ( US manufacturer Neuropace ) consists of a computerized electrical device implanted in the skull, with electrodes implanted in presumed epileptic foci within the brain.

* Deep brain stimulation ( US manufacturer Medtronic ) consists of a computerized electrical device implanted in the chest in a manner similar to the VNS, but electrical stimulation is delivered to deep brain structures through depth electrodes implanted through the skull.

The device consists of an active channel through which majority charge carriers, electrons or holes, flow from the source to the drain.

The signaling equipment, or ringer, ( see figure 1 ) consists of a bell, beeper, light or other device ( A7 ) to alert the user to incoming calls, and number buttons or a rotary dial ( A4 ) to enter a telephone number for outgoing calls.

A fuel-air explosive ( FAE ) device consists of a container of fuel and two separate explosive charges.

The digital data consists of an address and a command sent from a controller to a controlled device.

The device consists of a box or room with a hole in one side.

A single-link DVI connection consists of four TMDS links ; each link transmits data from the source to the device over 1 twisted wire pair.

Each field-effect transistor consists of a channel in the semiconductor body of the device.

The device consists of a flat surface upon which the user may " draw " or trace an image using an attached stylus, a pen-like drawing apparatus.

The simplest such device is a stall warning horn, which consists of either a pressure sensor or a movable metal tab that actuates a switch, and produces an audible warning in response.

The literary device of stories within a story dates back to a device known as a frame story, when the outer story does not have much matter, and most of the bulk of the work consists of one or more complete stories told by one or more storytellers.

A FEEP device consists of an emitter and an accelerator electrode.

The device consists of a hand-held receiver that contains a LCD information screen and functions as the controller and a wireless microphone-transmitter which is attached to the dog's collar.

* Station 37 is located in the business district and consists of 30 members with 3 apparatus – one pumper, one aerial device and one medic unit.

Defibrillation consists of delivering a therapeutic dose of electrical energy to the affected heart with a device called a defibrillator.

By no means, however, will the resulting signal be high-definition video ; that is, aside from optional deinterlacing, upconverting generally consists of merely scaling the video's dimensions to match that of higher resolution formats, foregoing the scaling that would normally occur in the output device.

A standard IV infusion set consists of a pre-filled, sterile container ( glass bottle, plastic bottle or plastic bag ) of fluids with an attachment that allows the fluid to flow one drop at a time, making it easy to see the flow rate ( and also reducing air bubbles ); a long sterile tube with a clamp to regulate or stop the flow ; a connector to attach to the access device ; and connectors ( called " s or Y-Set ( infusion ))" to allow "" of another infusion set onto the same line, e. g., adding a dose of antibiotics to a continuous fluid drip.

Generally, a demultiplexer is a device which transforms one multiplexed data stream to several streams which it consists of.

This system of ordinary differential equations relates the number or density of photons and charge carriers ( electrons ) in the device to the injection current and to device and material parameters such as carrier lifetime, photon lifetime, and the optical gain.

Then the photon flux density ( watts per metre squared usually ) of the transmitted or reflected light is measured with a photodiode, charge coupled device or other light sensor.

This device is able to detect low intensity signals ( down to the single photon ) and to signal the arrival times of the photons with a jitter of a few tens of picoseconds.

Because the device is operating in this unstable above-breakdown regime, a single photon ( or a single dark current electron ) can set off a significant avalanche of electrons.

The quantum efficiency ( QE ), or incident photon to converted electron ( IPCE ) ratio, of a photosensitive device or a charge-coupled device ( CCD ) is the percentage of photons hitting the device's photoreactive surface that produce charge carriers.

Spectral responsivity is a similar measurement, but it has different units: amperes per watt ( A / W ); ( i. e. how much current comes out of the device per incoming photon of a given energy and wavelength ).

Recently, a single photon emitting device was demonstrated by placing a quantum dot in a microcavity.

The arrows in the NPN and PNP transistor symbols are on the emitter legs and point in the direction of the conventional current flow when the device is in forward active mode.

Usually the emitter for the IR device, that is, the component that sends out the signal, uses an AC adaptor.

The device consisted of a semi-cylindrical photocathode, a secondary emitter mounted on the axis, and a collector grid surrounding the secondary emitter.

An array of these emitters can be placed around a target item to be scanned and the images from each emitter can be assembled by computer software to provide a 3-dimensional image of the target in a fraction of the time it takes using a conventional X-ray device.

The other original device type was the " Latham emitter ".

This was also one of the main advantages over concurrent SALH systems: regarding detection laser riding beam emitter is typically a low powered device and does not need to be pointed immediately to the target, and because the missile sensor " looks " backward to it, the whole system is impervious to most jamming devices.

Bias stability and independence from variations in device parameters can be improved by negative feedback introduced via cathode / emitter resistors with relatively small resistances.

If Q < sub > 1 </ sub > and Q < sub > 2 </ sub > are matched, that is, have substantially the same device properties, and if the mirror output voltage is chosen so the collector-base voltage of Q < sub > 2 </ sub > is also zero, then the V < sub > BE </ sub >- value set by Q < sub > 1 </ sub > results in an emitter current in the matched Q < sub > 2 </ sub > that is the same as the emitter current in Q < sub > 1 </ sub >.

He is depicted as a human physicist who has been transformed into solid sound, and who wears a sonic emitter on his right wrist as a prosthetic device.

Years later, Ulysses resurfaces with a sonic emitter / gun on his right wrist as a replacement prosthetic device for his missing hand that can create whatever objects or creatures Klaw can conceive, out of sound.

If the power dissipation in the active device of the CCS is not small and / or insufficient emitter degeneration is used, this can become a non-trivial issue.

The RBSOA may be different from generic SOA, for example for IGBTs, upper half corner of the RBSOA is progressively cut out which reduces the RBSOA as the rate of change of the collector to emitter voltage across the device, dVce / dt, is increased.

A speedy switching device is an NPN avalanche transistor fitted with a coil between base and emitter.

Diffusion capacitance is the capacitance due to transport of charge carriers between two terminals of a device, for example, the diffusion of carriers from anode to cathode in forward bias mode of a diode or from emitter to baseforward-biased junction in active region ) for a transistor.
