  2. High impedance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_impedance

    In analog circuits a high impedance node is one that does not have any low impedance paths to any other nodes in the frequency range being considered.Since the terms low and high depend on context to some extent, it is possible in principle for some high impedance nodes to be described as low impedance in one context, and high impedance in another; so the node (perhaps a signal source or ...

  3. Headphones - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Headphones

    Higher impedance headphones are more tolerant of amplifier limitations, but produce less volume for a given output level. Historically, many headphones had relatively high impedance, often over 500 ohms so they could operate well with high-impedance tube amplifiers. In contrast, modern transistor amplifiers can have very low output impedance ...

  4. In-ear monitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In-ear_monitor

    JH Audio JH16 Pro IEMs, with a custom-molded hard acrylic shell Elize Ryd wearing in-ear monitors during a concert in 2018. In-ear monitors, or simply IEMs or in-ears, are devices used by musicians, audio engineers and audiophiles to listen to music or to hear a personal mix of vocals and stage instrumentation for live performance or recording studio mixing.

  5. Impedance matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impedance_matching

    Practical impedance-matching devices will generally provide best results over a specified frequency band. The concept of impedance matching is widespread in electrical engineering, but is relevant in other applications in which a form of energy, not necessarily electrical, is transferred between a source and a load, such as in acoustics or optics.

  6. Three-state logic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-state_logic

    The basic concept of the third state, high impedance (Hi-Z), is to effectively remove the device's influence from the rest of the circuit. If more than one device is electrically connected to another device, putting an output into the Hi-Z state is often used to prevent short circuits, or one device driving high (logical 1) against another device driving low (logical 0).

  7. Crystal earpiece - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_earpiece

    The high impedance of the earpiece means that any audio-range signal applied to the tip of the connector will be heard in the earpiece. This quick-and-dirty technique can remove the need for setting up and probing with an oscilloscope or connecting an amplifier to the test point in the first instance.

  8. Open collector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_collector

    If all inputs are high, each buffer will be in a high-impedance state and the pull-up resistor will pull the output high. But if any input is low, the output will be pulled low by the buffer for that input. This corresponds to wired AND in active-high logic, or to wired OR in active-low logic, and allows multiple inputs to share the same output ...

  9. Electrical impedance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_impedance

    In electrical engineering, impedance is the opposition to alternating current presented by the combined effect of resistance and reactance in a circuit. [1]Quantitatively, the impedance of a two-terminal circuit element is the ratio of the complex representation of the sinusoidal voltage between its terminals, to the complex representation of the current flowing through it.
