Electrical Definitions |
Lapping : A method of reducing substrate/slice thickness for applications where accuracy of substrate thickness is critical like in case MMICs (Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits). |
Large Scale Integration : Circuits with complexities of 100 to 1000 equivalent gates per chip,including memories and some microprocessor fall into this category. |
Laryngaphone : A telephone transmitter in which the voice vibrations are taken up by a pad pressed on to the exterior of the throat instead of from the sound issuing situations in that it does not pick up extraneous sounds. |
Latency : The time required for a mechanical stored device to begin transmitting data after a request. |
Lens Antenna : A dielectric lens where a divergent beam is collimated. |
Liquid Crystal : An organic liquid consisting of long-chain molecules that line up under the influence of an applied electric field to give a quasi-crystalline structure of the liquid. |
Liquid Crystal Display : A type of passive display that uses liquid crystals, as in a seven-segment numerical display of digital watches and pocket calculators. |
Listde Wire : A wire of uniform resistance provided with a sliding contact that can make a connection at any desired point along the length. |
Local Area Network(LAN) : A communication network connecting devices in a local area,such as one floor of a building.Used for communications and to share common devices. |
Local Oscillations : Oscillations in a radio receiving circuit due to the action of the apparatus itself,e.g. from a separate oscillator valve for heterodyne reception or due to self oscillation. |
Logic Analyser : Logic analyser is basically a multichannel oscilloscope with the ability to detect and display logic levels in several forms. |
Logic Gate : These are devices which produce logical output depending upon logical input conditions.Various gates commonly used are "AND,OR,NAND,NOR, NOT and Exclusive-OR." |
