  2. Toyota Corolla (E100) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Corolla_(E100)

    The model used fewer body panels than the predecessor, for increased strength, lower cost, and fewer panel gaps (providing a cleaner appearance and lower wind resistance). The headlights were now from polycarbonate rather than glass, and almost 90 percent of the bodyshell was made from galvanized steel - compared to about 60 percent in the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_A_engine

    The 1.5 L 1A was produced between 1978 and 1980. [6] All variants were belt-driven 8-valve counter-flow SOHC engines with a single, twin-barrel downdraft carburetor.It used Toyota's Turbulence Generating Pot (TGP) lean combustion system to meet Japanese emissions standards at the time with only an oxidation (2-way) catalyst.

  4. Electric switchboard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_switchboard

    It is an assembly of one or more panels, each of which contains switching devices for the protection and control of circuits fed from the switchboard. Several manufacturers make switchboards used in industry, commercial buildings, telecommunication facilities, oil and gas plants, data centers, health care, and other buildings, and onboard large ...

  5. Backlight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backlight

    A backlight is a form of illumination used in liquid-crystal displays (LCDs) that provides illumination from the back or side of a display panel. LCDs do not produce light by themselves, so they need illumination ( ambient light or a special light source) to produce a visible image.

  6. LED-backlit LCD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LED-backlit_LCD

    An LED-backlit LCD is a liquid-crystal display that uses LEDs for backlighting instead of traditional cold cathode fluorescent (CCFL) backlighting. [1] LED-backlit displays use the same TFT LCD (thin-film-transistor liquid-crystal display) technologies as CCFL-backlit LCDs, but offer a variety of advantages over them.

  7. Electroluminescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroluminescence

    Views of a liquid crystal display, both with electroluminescent backlight switched on (top) and switched off (bottom). Electroluminescence (EL) is an optical and electrical phenomenon, in which a material emits light in response to the passage of an electric current or to a strong electric field.

  8. Light-emitting diode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-emitting_diode

    LEDs without phosphor, while a poorer solution for general lighting, are the best solution for displays, either backlight of LCD, or direct LED based pixels. Dimming a multicolor LED source to match the characteristics of incandescent lamps is difficult because manufacturing variations, age, and temperature change the actual color value output.

    The American Eagle A-1 was designed in late 1925 as a training aircraft to replace the World War I biplanes then in use by the Porterfield Flying School. The prototype A-1 first flew at Richards Field in Kansas City Missouri on 9 April 1926. [1]
