  2. Birkeland current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birkeland_current

    A Birkeland current (also known as field-aligned current, FAC) is a set of electrical currents that flow along geomagnetic field lines connecting the Earth's magnetosphere to the Earth's high latitude ionosphere. In the Earth's magnetosphere, the currents are driven by the solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) and by bulk motions ...

  3. Ionospheric dynamo region - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionospheric_dynamo_region

    In the height region between about 85 and 200 km altitude on Earth, the ionospheric plasma is electrically conducting. Atmospheric tidal winds due to differential solar heating or due to gravitational lunar forcing move the ionospheric plasma against the geomagnetic field lines thus generating electric fields and currents just like a dynamo coil moving against magnetic field lines.

  4. Electronic circuit simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_circuit_simulation

    Electronic circuit simulation. Electronic circuit simulation uses mathematical models to replicate the behavior of an actual electronic device or circuit. Simulation software allows for the modeling of circuit operation and is an invaluable analysis tool. Due to its highly accurate modeling capability, many colleges and universities use this ...

  5. Current sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_sensing

    The design of the saturable inductor current sensor is similar to that of a closed-loop Hall-effect current sensor; the only difference is that this method uses the saturable inductor instead of the Hall-effect sensor in the air gap. Saturable inductor current sensor is based on the detection of an inductance change. The saturable inductor is ...

  6. LTspice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LTspice

    LTspice provides schematic capture to enter an electronic schematic for an electronic circuit, an enhanced SPICE type analog electronic circuit simulator, and a waveform viewer to show the results of the simulation. [2] Circuit simulation analysis based on transient, noise, AC, DC, DC transfer function, DC operating point can be performed and ...

  7. Current limiting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_limiting

    Current limiting is the practice of imposing a limit on the current that may be delivered to a load to protect the circuit generating or transmitting the current from harmful effects due to a short-circuit or overload. The term "current limiting" is also used to define a type of overcurrent protective device. According to the 2020 NEC/NFPA 70 ...

  8. Thermal simulations for integrated circuits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_simulations_for...

    Using these methods, steady state temperature distribution was computed as well as the peak temperature as a function of time for a cubic die. For an input power of 0.3 W {\displaystyle 0.3W} (or 3.333 e 8 W / m 2 {\displaystyle 3.333e8W/m_{2}} ) applied over a single surface source on the top of a cubic die a peak increment of temperature in ...

  9. List of temperature sensors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_temperature_sensors

    The integrated circuit sensor may come in a variety of interfaces — analogue or digital; for digital, these could be Serial Peripheral Interface, SMBus/I 2 C or 1-Wire.. In OpenBSD, many of the I 2 C temperature sensors from the below list have been supported and are accessible through the generalised hardware sensors framework [3] since OpenBSD 3.9 (2006), [4] [5]: §6.1 which has also ...
