  2. Drain-induced barrier lowering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drain-induced_barrier_lowering

    However, at shorter lengths the slope of the current vs. gate bias curve is reduced, that is, it requires a larger change in gate bias to effect the same change in drain current. At extremely short lengths, the gate entirely fails to turn the device off. These effects cannot be modeled as a threshold adjustment. [2]

  3. Threshold voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threshold_voltage

    The threshold voltage, commonly abbreviated as V th or V GS(th), of a field-effect transistor (FET) is the minimum gate-to-source voltage (V GS) that is needed to create a conducting path between the source and drain terminals. It is an important scaling factor to maintain power efficiency.

  4. Voltage regulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_regulation

    The relative scarcity of information on distribution voltages and loads makes it difficult for utilities to make adjustments necessary to keep voltage levels within operating limits. [ 7 ] Although DG poses a number of significant challenges for distribution level voltage regulation, if combined with intelligent power electronics DG can ...

  5. Gate oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gate_oxide

    Gate oxide at NPNP transistor made by Frosch and Derrick, 1957 [1]. The gate oxide is the dielectric layer that separates the gate terminal of a MOSFET (metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor) from the underlying source and drain terminals as well as the conductive channel that connects source and drain when the transistor is turned on.

  6. Automatic gain control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_gain_control

    Schematic of an AGC used in the analog telephone network; the feedback from output level to gain is effected via a Vactrol resistive opto-isolator.. Automatic gain control (AGC) is a closed-loop feedback regulating circuit in an amplifier or chain of amplifiers, the purpose of which is to maintain a suitable signal amplitude at its output, despite variation of the signal amplitude at the input.

  7. Permanent adjustments of theodolites - Wikipedia

    These adjustments once made last for a long time. These are important for accuracy of observations taken from the instrument. The permanent adjustments in case of transit theodolite are:- Horizontal axis adjustment. The horizontal axis must be perpendicular to the vertical axis. Vertical circle index adjustment.

  8. PEMCO - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PEMCO

    PEMCO has earned several service and marketing-campaign awards in recent years, including: J.D. Power ranked PEMCO Insurance "highest in customer satisfaction among auto Insurers in the Northwest region," a five-state area, each year from 2013-2019.

  9. Conductivity near the percolation threshold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conductivity_near_the...

    Conductivity near the percolation threshold in physics, occurs in a mixture between a dielectric and a metallic component. The conductivity σ {\displaystyle \sigma } and the dielectric constant ϵ {\displaystyle \epsilon } of this mixture show a critical behavior if the fraction of the metallic component reaches the percolation threshold .
