  2. Elliptic filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_filter

    An elliptic filter (also known as a Cauer filter, named after Wilhelm Cauer, or as a Zolotarev filter, after Yegor Zolotarev) is a signal processing filter with equalized ripple (equiripple) behavior in both the passband and the stopband. The amount of ripple in each band is independently adjustable, and no other filter of equal order can have ...

  3. Distributed control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_control_system

    e. A distributed control system ( DCS) is a computerized control system for a process or plant usually with many control loops, in which autonomous controllers are distributed throughout the system, but there is no central operator supervisory control. This is in contrast to systems that use centralized controllers; either discrete controllers ...

  4. Pulse-amplitude modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-amplitude_modulation

    ΔΣM. OFDM. FDM. Multiplexing. v. t. e. Pulse-amplitude modulation ( PAM) is a form of signal modulation where the message information is encoded in the amplitude of a series of signal pulses. It is an analog pulse modulation scheme in which the amplitudes of a train of carrier pulses are varied according to the sample value of the message signal.

  5. Low-pass filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-pass_filter

    A low-pass filter is a filter that passes signals with a frequency lower than a selected cutoff frequency and attenuates signals with frequencies higher than the cutoff frequency. The exact frequency response of the filter depends on the filter design. The filter is sometimes called a high-cut filter, or treble-cut filter in audio applications.

  6. Pulse-density modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-density_modulation

    Pulse-density modulation, or PDM, is a form of modulation used to represent an analog signal with a binary signal.In a PDM signal, specific amplitude values are not encoded into codewords of pulses of different weight as they would be in pulse-code modulation (PCM); rather, the relative density of the pulses corresponds to the analog signal's amplitude.

  7. Preamplifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preamplifier

    A preamplifier, also known as a preamp, is an electronic amplifier that converts a weak electrical signal into an output signal strong enough to be noise-tolerant and strong enough for further processing, or for sending to a power amplifier and a loudspeaker. [1] Without this, the final signal would be noisy or distorted.

  8. Single-board computer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-board_computer

    A single-board computer ( SBC) is a complete computer built on a single circuit board, with microprocessor (s), memory, input/output (I/O) and other features required of a functional computer. Single-board computers are commonly made as demonstration or development systems, for educational systems, or for use as embedded computer controllers.

  9. Clamper (electronics) - Wikipedia

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

    A clamper (or clamping circuit or clamp) is an electronic circuit that fixes either the positive or the negative peak excursions of a signal to a defined voltage by adding a variable positive or negative DC voltage to it. [2] The clamper does not restrict the peak-to-peak excursion of the signal (clipping); it moves the whole signal up or down ...
