  2. Teardrop (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teardrop_(electronics)

    The main purpose of teardrops is to enhance structural integrity in presence of thermal or mechanical stresses, [1] [2] [3] for example due to vibration or flexing. [4] Structural integrity may be compromised, e.g., by misalignment during drilling, so that too much copper may be removed by the drill hole in the area where a trace connects to ...

  3. Routing (electronic design automation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Routing_(electronic_design...

    In electronic design, wire routing, commonly called simply routing, is a step in the design of printed circuit boards (PCBs) and integrated circuits (ICs). It builds on a preceding step, called placement , which determines the location of each active element of an IC or component on a PCB.

  4. Memory controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_controller

    A memory controller, also known as memory chip controller (MCC) or a memory controller unit (MCU), is a digital circuit that manages the flow of data going to and from a computer's main memory. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] When a memory controller is integrated into another chip, such as an integral part of a microprocessor , it is usually called an integrated ...

  5. Curve tracer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_tracer

    This is a method for finding electrically damaged pins on integrated circuit devices. [2] For three-terminal devices (such as transistors) a connection to the control terminal of the device being tested is used, such as the Base or Gate terminal. For BJT transistors and other current-controlled devices, the base or other control terminal ...

  6. Signal trace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_trace

    In electronics, a signal trace or circuit trace on a printed circuit board (PCB) or integrated circuit (IC) is the equivalent of a wire for conducting signals. [1] [2] Each trace consists of a flat, narrow part of the copper foil that remains after etching. Signal traces are usually narrower than power or ground traces because the current ...

  7. Electronic circuit simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_circuit_simulation

    Since ports are only attached to node 1 and node 4, nodes 2 and 3 need to be removed through Kron reduction. The table below shows the reduced Y parameter matrix of the Chebyshev filter example simulation after nodes 2 and 4 are eliminated. The nodes of the reduced table are renumbered to 1 and 2.

  8. JTAG - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JTAG

    JTAG (named after the Joint Test Action Group which codified it) is an industry standard for verifying designs of and testing printed circuit boards after manufacture.. JTAG implements standards for on-chip instrumentation in electronic design automation (EDA) as a complementary tool to digital simulation. [1]

  9. Dual in-line package - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_in-line_package

    The package may be through-hole mounted to a printed circuit board (PCB) or inserted in a socket. The dual-inline format was invented by Don Forbes, Rex Rice and Bryant Rogers at Fairchild R&D in 1964, [2] when the restricted number of leads available on circular transistor-style packages became a limitation in the use of integrated circuits.
