    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_card

    Close-up of a sound card PCB, showing electrolytic capacitors, SMT capacitors and resistors, and a YAC512 two-channel 16-bit DAC. [1] The integrated circuit on the left is a 3403 single power supply quad operational amplifier. Sound cards use a digital-to-analog converter (DAC), which converts recorded or generated digital signal data into an ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOS_Technology_VIC-II

    The VIC-II chip was designed primarily by Albert Charpentier and Charles Winterble [1] at MOS Technology, Inc. as a successor to the MOS Technology 6560 "VIC".The team at MOS Technology had previously failed to produce two graphics chips named MOS Technology 6562 for the Commodore TOI computer, and MOS Technology 6564 for the Color PET, due to memory speed constraints.

    A 15-pin VGA connector for a personal computer A 21-pin SCART or JP21 connector for a television. The various RGB (red, green, blue) analog component video standards (e.g., RGBS, RGBHV, RGsB) use no compression and impose no real limit on color depth or resolution, but require large bandwidth to carry the signal and contain a lot of redundant data since each channel typically includes much of ...

    There are a number of other companies (AMD, Microchip, Altera, etc.) making specialized chipsets as part of other ICs, and they are not often found in PC hardware (laptop, desktop or server). There are also a number of now defunct companies (like 3com, DEC, SGI) that produced network related chipsets for us in general computers.

    The firm called the new 14.4 × 9.6 in (366 × 244 mm) design of this motherboard "Ultra ATX" [11] in its CES 2008 showing. Also unveiled during the January 2008 CES was the Lian Li Armorsuit PC-P80 case with 10 slots designed for the motherboard. [12] The name "XL-ATX" has been used by at least three companies in different ways:

    2009 Nobel Prize in Physics laureates George E. Smith and Willard Boyle, 2009, photographed on a Nikon D80, which uses a CCD sensor. The basis for the CCD is the metal–oxide–semiconductor (MOS) structure, [2] with MOS capacitors being the basic building blocks of a CCD, [1] [3] and a depleted MOS structure used as the photodetector in early CCD devices.

  9. Computer fan control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_fan_control

    The control signal is a square wave operating at 25 kHz, with the duty cycle determining the fan speed. 25 kHz is used to raise the sound of the signal above the range of human hearing; use of a lower frequency could produce an audible hum or whine. Typically a fan can be driven between about 30% and 100% of the rated fan speed, using a signal ...
