Boiling point (BP)

Engineering; Electronic engineering

The temperature at which a liquid vaporizes. The boiling point of water in air at a pressure of one atmosphere is 100°C or 212°F.

Alternate mode

Engineering; Electronic engineering

The technique of displaying several signals on an oscilloscope screen by rapidly switching the signals in sequence at the end of each sweep.

Absolute zero

Engineering; Electronic engineering

The temperature –273.16°C (_459.7°F and 0 Kelvin). The coldest possible temperature, representing the complete absence of heat energy.

Composite video signal

Engineering; Electronic engineering

The television picture signal containing picture information and sync pulses.

Case temperature

Engineering; Electronic engineering

The temperature at a designated point on the outside surface of a component's case or housing.

Ambient temperature

Engineering; Electronic engineering

The temperature surrounding apparatus and equipment (e.g., room temperature).

Cycling

Engineering; Electronic engineering

The tendency of a parameter to oscillate back and forth between two different values.
