  2. Schmitt trigger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmitt_trigger

    The Schmitt trigger was invented by American scientist Otto H. Schmitt in 1934 while he was a graduate student, [1] later described in his doctoral dissertation (1937) as a thermionic trigger. [2] It was a direct result of Schmitt's study of the neural impulse propagation in squid nerves.

  4. Power-on reset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-on_reset

    One of the issues with using an RC network to generate a PoR pulse is the sensitivity of the R and C values to the power-supply ramp characteristics. When the power supply ramp is rapid, the R and C values can be calculated so that the time to reach the switching threshold of the Schmitt trigger is enough to apply a long enough reset pulse.

    The following is a list of CMOS 4000-series digital logic integrated circuits.In 1968, the original 4000-series was introduced by RCA.Although more recent parts are considerably faster, the 4000 devices operate over a wide power supply range (3V to 18V recommended range for "B" series) and are well suited to unregulated battery powered applications and interfacing with sensitive analogue ...

  7. Deadband - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadband

    Deadband is the period of dead-state of a system. A deadband or dead-band (also known as a dead zone or a neutral zone) is a band of input values in the domain of a transfer function in a control system or signal processing system where the output is zero (the output is 'dead' - no action occurs).

  8. Regenerative circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_circuit

    One example is the Schmitt trigger (which is also known as a regenerative comparator), but the most common use of the term is in RF amplifiers, and especially regenerative receivers, to greatly increase the gain of a single amplifier stage. [4] [5] [6]

  9. Biomimetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biomimetics

    During the 1950s, the American biophysicist and polymath Otto Schmitt developed the concept of "biomimetics". [3] During his doctoral research, he developed the Schmitt trigger by studying the nerves in squid, attempting to engineer a device that replicated the biological system of nerve propagation . [ 10 ]
