  2. NMEA 0183 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NMEA_0183

    NMEA 0183 is a combined electrical and data specification for communication between marine electronics such as echo sounder, sonars, anemometer, gyrocompass, autopilot, GPS receivers and many other types of instruments. It has been defined and is controlled by the National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA).

  3. p–n junction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P–n_junction

    pn junctions represent the simplest case of a semiconductor electronic device; a p-n junction by itself, when connected on both sides to a circuit, is a diode. More complex circuit components can be created by further combinations of p-type and n-type semiconductors; for example, the bipolar junction transistor (BJT) is a semiconductor in ...

    PH or P/H: precipitation hardening, precipitation-hardened; pilot hole PHR BRZ: phosphor bronze PL or P/L: parts list: A list, usually tabular and often on the drawing (if not accompanying the drawing on a separate sheet), listing the parts needed in an assembly, including subparts, standard parts, and hardware.

  6. Point-to-point (telecommunications) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point-to-point...

    A hub provides a point-to-multipoint (or simply multipoint) circuit in which all connected client nodes share the network bandwidth. A switch on the other hand provides a series of point-to-point circuits, via microsegmentation, which allows each client node to have a dedicated circuit and the added advantage of having full-duplex connections.

  7. Circuit topology (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_topology_(electrical)

    The circuit diagrams in this article follow the usual conventions in electronics; [1] lines represent conductors, filled small circles represent junctions of conductors, and open small circles represent terminals for connection to the outside world. In most cases, impedances are represented by rectangles.

  8. Communication in aquatic animals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communication_in_aquatic...

    The basic functions of communication in aquatic animals are similar to those of terrestrial animals. In general, communication can be used to facilitate social recognition and aggregation, to locate, attract and evaluate mating partners and to engage in territorial or mating disputes. Different species of aquatic animals can sometimes communicate.

  9. Node (networking) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_(networking)

    In data communication, a physical network node may either be data communication equipment (such as a modem, hub, bridge or switch) or data terminal equipment (such as a digital telephone handset, a printer or a host computer). A passive distribution point such as a distribution frame or patch panel is not a node.
