A crocodile clip or alligator clip [1] is a plier-like spring-tensioned metal clip with elongated, serrated jaws that is used for creating a temporary electrical connection. This simple mechanical device gets its name from the resemblance of its serrated jaws to the toothed jaws of a crocodile or alligator .
Alligator and Crocodile clips – conductive clamps used for temporary connections, e.g. jumper cables; Board to board connectors – e.g. card-edge connectors or FPGA mezzanine connectors; Twist-on wire connectors (e.g. wire nuts) – used in low-voltage power circuits for wires up to about 10 AWG; Wire wrapping – used in older circuit boards
Where BNC is used, available as 3 connectors with Sync on Green, or 5 connector Red / Green / Blue / Horizontal Sync / Vertical sync. Mac-II/Quadra DA15F: 1152 × 870 @ 75 [8] Macintosh: Mac-DA15F and Sun-13W3 were similar in capability to VGA. Some Sun machines used 4 or 5 BNC connectors to transfer video signal. 1990: 13W3 DB13W3: 1152 × 900 ...
In 1941, the US Navy used a smaller version of the threaded N connector, the Type BN (Baby N), as the UG-85/U, UG-86/U, UG-114/U and UG-115/U. . In 1943, the British introduced a ¼ inch 50 ohm coaxial cable, and companies immediately developed many connectors for it.
SR connector (from Russian: Cоединитель Pадиочастотный) is a Russian RF connector, based on the BNC connector and which comes in a 50 Ω and 75 Ω versions; TNC connector (threaded Neill-Concelman) Twin-BNC (Twinax) Twinax connectors are used with 78 Ω or 95 Ω conductor cables and operate from 0–200 MHz. Due to ...
Triaxial BNC connector, typically used on precision electrical measurement equipment. Triaxial cable, often referred to as triax for short, is a type of electrical cable similar to coaxial cable, but with the addition of an extra layer of insulation and a second conducting sheath.
Oppose per ENGVAR and RETAIN, unless someone can convince me that "alligator clip" is a distinct thing in British English. I have always heard them called "crocodile clips". Spinning Spark 22:47, 30 July 2015 (UTC) Comment. "Alligator clip" was the name given to this device when it was invented in 1908. The company that invented it (Mueller ...
The connector looks almost identical to a typical BNC connector, but is designed to not mate with BNC jacks. It features two bayonet lugs on the female connector; mating is fully achieved with a quarter turn of the coupling nut. The dimensions of the connector are specified in the MIL-STD-348B. MHV connectors can be recognized by the slightly ...
