Shot noise is a type of electronic noise that occurs when the finite number of particles ( such as electrons in an electronic circuit or photons in an optical device ) is small enough to give rise to statistical fluctuations in a signal.

Both the logical complexity ( needing very large logic design and logic verification teams and simulation farms with perhaps thousands of computers ) and the high operating frequencies ( needing large circuit design teams and access to the state-of-the-art fabrication process ) account for the high cost of design for this type of chip.

An electrical circuit is a special type of network, one that has a closed loop giving a return path for the current.

Dependent Sources depend upon a particular element of the circuit for delivering the power or voltage or current depending upon the type of source it is.

Usually the body terminal is connected to the highest or lowest voltage within the circuit, depending on type.

Also, as Hall voltage is often on the order of millivolts, the output from this type of sensor cannot be used to directly drive actuators but instead must be amplified by a transistor-based circuit.

It is a special type of integrated circuit socket designed for very high pin counts.

That makes them useful for classifying different parts of the magnetic field of the magnetosphere, each associated with a distinct type of circuit.

The simplest type of neural circuit is a reflex arc, which begins with a sensory input and ends with a motor output, passing through a sequence of neurons in between.

The circuit begins with sensory receptors in the skin that are activated by harmful levels of heat: a special type of molecular structure embedded in the membrane causes heat to change the electrical field across the membrane.

A ladder diagram is a method of drawing control circuits which pre-dates PLCs ; it is also a type of PLC user interface which uses the same method of representing a circuit.

In July 1959, he filed for " Semiconductor Device and Lead Structure ", a type of integrated circuit.

This type of scuba equipment is known as closed circuit, as the gas is recirculated through the system, and only lost to the surroundings when it expands due to pressure change or when more is added than the circuit can hold.

As first mentioned in regard to earliest ZBD closed-core transformers, transformers are generally considered to be either core form or shell form in design depending on the type of magnetic circuit used in winding construction ( see image ).

* Jacques-Yves Cousteau co-invents, with Emile Gagnan, the first commercially successful open circuit type of scuba diving equipment, the Aqua-lung.

Another type of high-speed data networking circuit is 10 Gigabit Ethernet ( 10GbE ).

In analog circuit design, a multiplexer is a special type of analog switch that connects one signal selected from several inputs to a single output.

A more accurate type of ohmmeter has an electronic circuit that passes a constant current ( I ) through the resistance, and another circuit that measures the voltage ( V ) across the resistance.

Most analog multimeters of the moving-pointer type are unbuffered, and draw current from the circuit under test to deflect the meter pointer.

A reflection amplifier is a type of microwave amplifier circuit utilizing negative resistance diodes such as tunnel diodes and Gunn diodes.

) The concept of nationalism is the political principle that epitomizes and glorifies the territorial state as the characteristic type of socal structure.

It only means that there will be new form, and that this form will be of such a type that it admits the chaos and does not try to say that the chaos is really something else.

His name is Praisegod Piepsam, and he is rather fully described as to his clothing and physiognomy in a way which relates him to a sinister type in the author's repertory -- he is a forerunner of those enigmatic strangers in `` Death In Venice '', for example, who represent some combination of cadaver, exotic, and psychopomp.

The hero, who is himself, is represented as a pilgrim in the storied lands of the East, a sort of Faustus type, who, to quote from Professor Book again, `` even in the pleasure gardens of Sardanapalus can not cease from his painful search after the meaning of life.

But because it is the function of the mind to turn the one into the other by means of the capacities with which words endow it, we do not unwisely examine the type of distinction, in the sphere of politics, on which decisions hang.

Accordingly we may speak of the Platonism peculiar to Shelley's poems or the type of Stoicism present in Henley's `` Invictus '', and we may find that describing such Platonism or such Stoicism and contrasting each with other expressions of the same attitude or mode of thought is a difficult and challenging enterprise.

In the main stream of historical thinking is a group of scholars, H.M. Chadwick, R.H. Hodgkin, Sir Frank Stenton et al. who are in varying degrees sceptical of the native traditions of the conquest but who defend the catastrophic type of invasion suggested by them.

It is not as convenient as the old type toothbrush and the paste tends to shimmy off the bristles.

The rural land use study is being carried out under contract by the University of Rhode Island and identifies all agricultural land uses in the state by type of use.

This type of borrowing can be reduced to a minimum if quarterly installment payment of taxes is instituted and the first payment placed near the opening of the fiscal year.

It indicates the same thing but it is meant to pertain more specifically to establishments designed to cater to smaller type boats such as outboards.

Actually, the engine displacement formula is the standard formula for computing the volume of a cylinder of any type with an added factor that represents the number of cylinders in the engine.

Laguerre Hanover is outstanding in type and conformation -- good body, plenty of heart girth, stands straight on his legs on excellent feet -- and has the smoothest gait.

Fury is upstanding and on the rangy side, and Caper is more the compact type.

Torrid Adios ( Torrid-Adios Molly ) is not so masculine as most of the colts, but I like his type and he certainly is one of the best-gaited pacers on the grounds.

After notching it for the keelson, chines and battens, the half-inch plywood transom is secured to it with glue and the same type nails.

It is one of the very few, if not the only surviving bridge of its type to serve a main artery of the U.S. highway system, thus it is far more than a relic of the horse and buggy days.

New to the field is a duplex type butyrate laminate in which the two sheets of the laminate are of different color.

Still another approach to the changeable letter type of sign is a modular unit introduced by Merritt Products, Azusa, Calif..
