  2. Push switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Push_switch

    This type of switch is also known as a Normally Closed (NC) Switch. (Examples: Fridge Light Switch, Alarm Switches in Fail-Safe circuits) Many push switches are designed to function as both 'push to make' and 'push to break' switches. For these switches, the wiring of the switch determines whether the switch functions as a 'push to make' or as ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flowchart

    A simple flowchart representing a process for dealing with a non-functioning lamp.. A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents a workflow or process.A flowchart can also be defined as a diagrammatic representation of an algorithm, a step-by-step approach to solving a task.

  5. Switch - Wikipedia

    The most common type is a "push-to-make" (or normally-open or NO) switch, which makes contact when the button is pressed and breaks when the button is released. Each key of a computer keyboard, for example, is a normally-open "push-to-make" switch. A "push-to-break" (or normally-closed or NC) switch, on the other hand, breaks contact when the ...

  6. Latching switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latching_switch

    A latching switch is a switch that maintains its state after being activated. [1] A push-to-make, push-to-break switch would therefore be a latching switch – each time you actuate it, whichever state the switch is left in will persist until the switch is actuated again. [2]

  7. General-purpose input/output - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General-purpose_input/output

    For example, Schmitt-trigger inputs, high-current output drivers, optical isolators, or combinations of these, may be used to buffer and condition the GPIO signals and to protect board circuitry. Also, higher-level functions are sometimes implemented, such as input debounce , input signal edge detection, and pulse-width modulation (PWM) output.

  8. Multiway switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiway_switching

    In building wiring, multiway switching is the interconnection of two or more electrical switches to control an electrical load from more than one location.A common application is in lighting, where it allows the control of lamps from multiple locations, for example in a hallway, stairwell, or large room.

  9. Push–pull converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Push–pull_converter

    For example, in a full-bridge converter, the switches (connected as an H-bridge) alternate the voltage across the supply side of the transformer, causing the transformer to function as it would for AC power and produce a voltage on its output side. However, push–pull more commonly refers to a two-switch topology with a split primary winding.
