A line consists of four parts, excluding the initial '/' character: [1] Address — 4 character (2 byte) field containing the address where the data is to be loaded into memory. This limits the address to a maximum value of FFFF 16. Byte count — 2 character (1 byte) field containing the length of the data fields.
In 1987, IEEE introduced IEEE 488.2-1987 specification "Standard Codes, Formats, Protocols, and Common Commands", it was later revised in 1992 as IEEE 488.2-1992. [ 8 ] While IEEE 488.2 provided a device-independent syntax, there was still no standard for instrument-specific commands.
Variable transformer – part of Tektronix 576 Curve Tracer. By exposing part of the winding coils and making the secondary connection through a sliding brush, a continuously variable turns ratio can be obtained, allowing for very smooth control of output voltage. The output voltage is not limited to the discrete voltages represented by actual ...
In 1956, a large property in Beaverton became available, and the company's employee retirement trust purchased the land and leased it back to the company. [10] Construction began in 1957 and on May 1, 1959, Tektronix moved into its new Beaverton headquarters campus, [10] on a 313-acre (1.27 km 2) site which came to be called the Tektronix Industrial Park.
In electronics testing and servicing, an isolation transformer is a 1:1 (under load) power transformer used for safety. Without it, exposed live metal in a device under test is at a hazardous voltage relative to grounded objects such as a heating radiator or oscilloscope ground lead (a particular hazard with some old vacuum-tube equipment with ...
A balun / ˈ b æ l ʌ n / (from "balanced to unbalanced", originally, but now derived from "balancing unit") [1] is an electrical device that allows balanced and unbalanced lines to be interfaced without disturbing the impedance arrangement of either line. [2] A balun can take many forms and may include devices that also transform impedances ...
Some manufacturers released some 4000-series equivalent CMOS circuits with a 74 prefix, for example, the 74HC4066 [2] was a replacement for the 4066 with slightly different electrical characteristics (different power-supply voltage ratings, higher frequency capabilities, lower "on" resistances in analog switches, etc.).
Unlike conventional transformers, a flyback transformer is not fed with a signal of the same waveshape as the intended output current. A convenient side effect of such a transformer is the considerable energy that is available in its magnetic circuit. This can be exploited using extra windings to provide power to operate other parts of the ...
