  2. Reference designator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_designator

    voltage regulators are often "U" for IC, pots and trimmers often "R" for resistor X: Socket connector for another item not P or J, paired with the letter symbol for that item (XV for vacuum tube socket, XF for fuse holder, XA for printed circuit assembly connector, XU for integrated circuit connector, XDS for light socket, etc.) X, XTAL, Y

  3. Electronic symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_symbol

    An electronic symbol is a pictogram used to represent various electrical and electronic devices or functions, such as wires, batteries, resistors, and transistors, in a schematic diagram of an electrical or electronic circuit. These symbols are largely standardized internationally today, but may vary from country to country, or engineering ...

  4. Voltage converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_converter

    AC voltage conversion uses a transformer. Conversion from one DC voltage to another requires electronic circuitry (electromechanical equipment was required before the development of semiconductor electronics), like a DC-DC converter. [1] Mains power (called household current in the US) is universally AC. [2]

  5. Circuit diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_diagram

    A less common symbol is simply a series of peaks on one side of the line representing the conductor, rather than back-and-forth. Wire crossover symbols for circuit diagrams. The CAD symbol for insulated crossing wires is the same as the older, non-CAD symbol for non-insulated crossing wires. To avoid confusion, the wire "jump" (semi-circle ...

  6. Electrical drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_drawing

    An electrical drawing is a type of technical drawing that shows information about power, lighting, and communication for an engineering or architectural project.Any electrical working drawing consists of "lines, symbols, dimensions, and notations to accurately convey an engineering's design to the workers, who install the electrical system on the job".

  7. IC power-supply pin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IC_power-supply_pin

    More advanced circuits often have pins carrying voltage levels for more specialized functions, and these are generally labeled with some abbreviation of their purpose. For example, V USB for the supply delivered to a USB device (nominally 5 V), V BAT for a battery, or V ref for the reference voltage for an analog-to-digital converter. Systems ...

  8. Passive sign convention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_sign_convention

    Illustration of the "reference directions" of the current (), voltage (), and power () variables used in the passive sign convention.If positive current is defined as flowing into the device terminal which is defined to be positive voltage, then positive power (big arrow) given by the equation = represents electric power flowing into the device, and negative power represents power flowing out.

    A type of voltage converter that stores energy in an inductor. flyback transformer A type of transformer that recovers energy stored in its own core. Historically used in the deflection circuits of CRT display systems. forward converter A type of voltage converter that relies on transformer action to couple energy to its output circuit.
