2. Joule thief - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule_thief

   The joule thief is not a new concept. Basically, it adds an LED to the output of a self-oscillating voltage booster, which was patented many decades ago.. US Patent 1949383, [1] filed in 1930, "Electronic device", describes a vacuum tube based oscillator circuit to convert a low voltage into a high voltage.

3. Reference designator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_designator

   A reference designator unambiguously identifies the location of a component within an electrical schematic or on a printed circuit board.The reference designator usually consists of one or two letters followed by a number, e.g. C3, D1, R4, U15.

4. Printed circuit board - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printed_circuit_board

   A printed circuit board (PCB), also called printed wiring board (PWB), is a laminated sandwich structure of conductive and insulating layers, each with a pattern of traces, planes and other features (similar to wires on a flat surface) etched from one or more sheet layers of copper laminated onto or between sheet layers of a non-conductive ...

5. 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 ...

6. Thermal management of high-power LEDs - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_management_of_high...

   LED power dissipation is modeled as a current source; thermal resistance is modeled as a resistor; and the ambient temperature is modeled as a voltage source. High power light-emitting diodes (LEDs) can use 350 milliwatts or more in a single LED. Most of the electricity in an LED becomes heat rather than light – about 70% heat and 30% light. [1]

7. Surface-mount technology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-mount_technology

   Surface-mount technology (SMT), originally called planar mounting, [1] is a method in which the electrical components are mounted directly onto the surface of a printed circuit board (PCB). [2] An electrical component mounted in this manner is referred to as a surface-mount device ( SMD ).

8. NEMA connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEMA_connector

   NEMA non-locking connectors all use blades of various flat and folded shapes (except for the round pins used on grounding connectors). The plugs can be detached from the receptacles by pulling back on the plug body. These connector families have been designed so that connectors of differing types cannot be accidentally intermated.

9. Pin header - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pin_header

   1×6 pin header (one row) 1×6 female header (one row) A pin header (or simply, header) is a form of electrical connector.A male pin header consists of one or more rows of metal pins molded into a plastic base, often 2.54 mm (0.1 in) apart, though available in many spacings. [1]
