Modulator : A transmitter circuit or device that varies the amplitude, frequency,phase or other characteristic of a carrier signal in proportion to the waveform of the modulating signal that contains useful information.

Modulus : The maximum number of states in a counter sequence.

Monostable: It means having only one stable state,e.g.,a multivibrator characterised by one stable state.
