High Definition Television, any television system with more than 625 scan lines. headphone An audio transducer or pair of transducers arranged to be worn on (or in) the ear. heat transfer The study of the flow of heat energy; heat transfer concerns dictate major design features of most electrical and electronic systems. heatsink
A new definition, in terms of the elementary charge, will take effect on 20 May 2019. [141] The new definition defines the elementary charge (the charge of the proton) as exactly 1.602 176 634 × 10 −19 coulombs. This would implicitly define the coulomb as 1 ⁄ 0.160 217 6634 × 10 18 elementary charges. Coulomb's law
This glossary of power electronics is a list of definitions of terms and concepts related to power electronics in general and power electronic capacitors in particular. For more definitions in electric engineering, see Glossary of electrical and electronics engineering .
The electrical intensity or "pressure" developed by a source of electrical energy such as a battery or generator and measured in volts. Any device that converts other forms of energy into electrical energy provides electromotive force as its output. electron A subatomic particle with a negative elementary electric charge. electron capture ...
By 1914, the IEC had issued a first list of terms and definitions covering electrical machinery and apparatus, a list of international letter symbols for quantities and signs for names of units, a list of definitions in connection with hydraulic turbines, and a number of definitions and recommendations relating to rotating machines and ...

In contrast to electronic systems concerned with the transmission and processing of signals and data, substantial amounts of electrical energy are processed in power electronics. An AC/DC converter ( rectifier ) is the most typical power electronics device found in many consumer electronic devices, e.g. television sets, personal computers ...
Electrical engineering can be described as all of the following: Academic discipline – branch of knowledge that is taught and researched at the college or university level. Disciplines are defined (in part), and recognized by the academic journals in which research is published, and the learned societies and academic departments or faculties ...
