Electrical Definitions |
Wafer : A large single crystal of semiconductor material,usually silicon that is used as the substrate during the manufacture of a number of chips. |
WAN (Wide Area Network) : Connecting of computers over longer distance than in a single building,involving distance of kilometers rather than metres. |
Wandering : Change in apparent direction of received radio signals irrespective of the adjustment of the transmitter or receiver. |
Wave Aerial : An aerial,usually supported only a few metre from the ground, of a length equal to multiple of the wave length to be received,in which wave reflection from the ends is prevented by resistances;giving high efficiency of reception and considerable direction. |
Wave Analyzer : An instrument to analyse a complex wave form into its fundamentals and harmonic components. |
Wave Guide Mixer: A microwave mixer that combines RF signal and LO signal to produce IF. |
Wein Bridge: An AC bridge method of measuring dielectric loses in which the capacitance to be tested and standard condenser from two arms and variable resistances the other two. |
