  2. PCB reverse engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCB_reverse_engineering

    For example, reverse engineering a circuit assembly reveals whether or not the fabricator has exactly matched the design specifications of the board. The process can be used to inspect for counterfeit or malicious circuits embedded in a PCB, or, if a new product has been purchased by a company, to create schematics or other documentation that ...

  3. Reverse engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_engineering

    Reverse engineering (also known as backwards engineering or back engineering) is a process or method through which one attempts to understand through deductive reasoning how a previously made device, process, system, or piece of software accomplishes a task with very little (if any) insight into exactly how it does so. Depending on the system ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottom–up_and_top–down...

    From a cognitive psychology perspective, information enters the eyes in one direction (sensory input, or the "bottom"), and is then turned into an image by the brain that can be interpreted and recognized as a perception (output that is "built up" from processing to final cognition). In a bottom–up approach the individual base elements of the ...

    A circuit protective device that opens on excess current, and then, on cooling off, restores the circuit automatically. residual current circuit breaker A circuit breaker that detects unbalance of phase currents due to ground fault. resistive circuit A circuit containing resistive elements only, no capacitors or inductors. resistivity

  6. Clean-room design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clean-room_design

    In the first season of the 2014 TV show Halt and Catch Fire, a key plot point from the second episode is how the fictional Cardiff Electric computer company placed an engineer in a clean room to reverse engineer a BIOS for its PC clone, to provide cover and protection from IBM lawsuits for a previous probably-illegal hacking of the BIOS code others at the company had performed.

  7. N2 chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N2_Chart

    N 2 chart example. [1] The N 2 chart or N 2 diagram (pronounced "en-two" or "en-squared") is a chart or diagram in the shape of a matrix, representing functional or physical interfaces between system elements. It is used to systematically identify, define, tabulate, design, and analyze functional and physical interfaces.

    Dell Precision T3600 System Motherboard, used in professional CAD Workstations. Manufactured in 2012. A motherboard (also called mainboard, main circuit board, MB, mobo, base board, system board, or, in Apple computers, logic board) is the main printed circuit board (PCB) in general-purpose computers and other expandable systems.

  9. Potting (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potting_(electronics)

    As an alternative, many circuit board assembly houses coat assemblies with a layer of transparent conformal coating rather than potting. [5] Conformal coating gives most of the benefits of potting, and is lighter and easier to inspect, test, and repair. Conformal coatings can be applied as liquid or condensed from a vapor phase.
