Electronic engineering
Biofeedback
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A technique in which changes in skin temperature and resistance are detected and displayed by an electronic device.
Acoustic telegraph
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A telegraph that gives audible signals, as opposed to visual signals or printed messages.
Ac transducer
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A transducer that either requires an ac supply voltage or delivers an ac output signal— even when operated from a dc supply.
Capacitive proximity sensor
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A transducer used in mobile robots that detects the presence of certain kinds of objects. It consists of an oscillator whose frequency is determined by an inductance-capacitance (LC) circuit to which ...
Acoustic electric transducer
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A transducer, such as a microphone or hydrophone, that converts sound energy into electrical energy. Compare electrical/acoustic transducer. Also see acoustic transducer.
Crystal transducer
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A transducer using a piezoelectric crystal as the sensitive element. Examples: crystal earphone, crystal loudspeaker, crystal microphone, and crystal pickup.
Distributed-shell transformer
Engineering; Electronic engineering
A transformer having two complete closed cores that are perpendicular to each other.
