  2. Silicon controlled rectifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_controlled_rectifier

    A silicon-controlled switch (SCS) behaves nearly the same way as an SCR; but there are a few differences. Unlike an SCR, an SCS switches off when a positive voltage/input current is applied to another anode gate lead. Unlike an SCR, an SCS can be triggered into conduction when a negative voltage/output current is applied to that same lead.

  3. Short circuit ratio (synchronous generator) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_circuit_ratio...

    low SCR: in case of a short circuit, the current is proportional to SCR, therefore generators with low SCR require less protection and thus are cheaper; low SCR allows shorter air gap and lower excitation field, both decreasing the size (an cost) of the generator; with low SCR the amounts of iron and copper are reduced, lowering the cost; high SCR:

  4. Short circuit ratio (electrical grid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_circuit_ratio...

    The SCR can be calculated for each point on an electrical grid. A point on a grid having a number of machines with an SCR above a number between 1 and 1.5 has less vulnerability to voltage instability. Hence, such a grid is known strong grid or power system. A power system (grid) having a lower SCR has more vulnerability to grid voltage ...

  5. Integrated circuit design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_circuit_design

    A typical IC design cycle involves several steps: System specification Feasibility study and die size estimate; Function analysis; Architectural or system-level design; Logic design Analogue design, simulation, and layout; Digital design and simulation; System simulation, emulation, and verification; Circuit design Digital design synthesis

  6. Circuit design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_design

    Finally, the individual circuit components are chosen to carry out each function in the overall design; at this stage, the physical layout and electrical connections of each component are also decided, this layout commonly taking the form of artwork for the production of a printed circuit board or Integrated circuit. This stage is typically ...

  7. Systems design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systems_design

    The basic study of system design is the understanding of component parts and their subsequent interaction with one another. [ 1 ] Systems design has appeared in a variety of fields, including sustainability, [ 2 ] computer/software architecture, [ 3 ] and sociology.

  8. Systems architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systems_architecture

    An architecture description is a formal description and representation of a system, organized in a way that supports reasoning about the structures and behaviors of the system. A system architecture can consist of system components and the sub-systems developed, that will work together to implement the overall system. There have been efforts to ...

  9. Electronic design automation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_design_automation

    Electronic design automation (EDA), also referred to as electronic computer-aided design (ECAD), [1] is a category of software tools for designing electronic systems such as integrated circuits and printed circuit boards. The tools work together in a design flow that chip designers use to design and analyze entire semiconductor chips.
