Electronic engineering

Dipper

Engineering; Electronic engineering

Collective term for resonance-type instruments, such as a dip metre or dip adapter.

Arc suppression

Engineering; Electronic engineering

Extinguishing an arc discharge. Disruptive arcs in electronic circuits are suppressed by means of auxiliary diodes or resistor-capacitor networks.

Antenna-conducted interference

Engineering; Electronic engineering

Extraneous signals generated in a transmitter or receiver and presented to the antenna, from which they are radiated.

Cosmic rays

Engineering; Electronic engineering

Extremely penetrating rays consisting of streams of atomic nuclei entering the earth's atmosphere from outer space.

Cambric

Engineering; Electronic engineering

Finely woven cotton or linen used for insulation. One type of spaghetti (conductor insulation), for example, is varnished cambric tubing.

Corrective feedback

Engineering; Electronic engineering

Feedback that is used to correct (bring to a prescribed level) a quantity constituting the input to a system.

Capacitive feedback

Engineering; Electronic engineering

Feeding energy back from the output to the input of an amplifier or oscillator through a capacitor.
