  2. Button cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Button_cell

    Button, coin, or watch cells. A button cell, watch battery, or coin battery is a small battery made of a single electrochemical cell and shaped as a squat cylinder typically 5 to 25 mm (0.197 to 0.984 in) in diameter and 1 to 6 mm (0.039 to 0.236 in) high – resembling a button.

  3. Push switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Push_switch

    A push switch (button) is a momentary or non-latching switch which causes a temporary change in the state of an electrical circuit only while the switch is physically actuated. An automatic mechanism (i.e. a spring) returns the switch to its default position immediately afterwards, restoring the initial circuit condition. There are two types: [1]

  4. Soft sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soft_sensor

    Soft sensor or virtual sensor is a common name for software where several measurements are processed together. Commonly soft sensors are based on control theory and also receive the name of state observer. There may be dozens or even hundreds of measurements.

  5. Position sensitive device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position_sensitive_device

    The most common sensor applications with a sampling rate of less than 1000 Hz are CCD or CMOS cameras. The sensor is partitioned into individual pixels whose exposure value can be read out sequentially. The position of the light spot can be computed with the methods of photogrammetry directly from the brightness distribution.

  6. Mercury battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_battery

    Mercury battery "РЦ-53М"(RTs-53M), Russian manufactured in 1989. A mercury battery (also called mercuric oxide battery, mercury cell, button cell, or Ruben-Mallory [1]) is a non-rechargeable electrochemical battery, a primary cell.

  7. Push-button - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Push-button

    Button shaped as an octagon. As an aid for operators and users in industrial or commercial applications, a pilot light is commonly added to draw the attention of the user and to provide feedback if the button is pushed. Typically this light is included into the center of the pushbutton and a lens replaces the pushbutton hard center disk. The ...

  8. Piezo switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezo_switch

    A piezo switch is an electrical switch based on the piezoelectric effect.. The charge generated by the piezoelectric element in the switch is typically used to turn on an integrated semiconductor device such as a field effect transistor (FET), causing the switch assembly's output to be active, or "on". [1]

  9. Multiway switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiway_switching

    In building wiring, multiway switching is the interconnection of two or more electrical switches to control an electrical load from more than one location. A common application is in lighting, where it allows the control of lamps from multiple locations, for example in a hallway, stairwell, or large room.
