  4. Schematic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schematic

    A schematic, or schematic diagram, is a designed representation of the elements of a system using abstract, graphic symbols rather than realistic pictures. A schematic usually omits all details that are not relevant to the key information the schematic is intended to convey, and may include oversimplified elements in order to make this essential meaning easier to grasp, as well as additional ...

  5. Voltage-regulator tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage-regulator_tube

    Schematic representation of a cold cathode voltage-regulator tube 5651 Regulator tube in operation. A voltage-regulator tube (VR tube) is an electronic component used as a shunt regulator to hold a voltage constant at a predetermined level. Physically, these devices resemble vacuum tubes, but there are two main differences:

  6. All American Five - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_American_Five

    The term All American Five (abbreviated AA5) is a colloquial name for mass-produced, superheterodyne radio receivers that used five vacuum tubes in their design. These radio sets were designed to receive amplitude modulation (AM) broadcasts in the medium wave band, and were manufactured in the United States from the mid-1930s until the early 1960s.

    [33] [48] [24]: p.98-100 See circuit diagram. The primary winding of the oscillation transformer ( L1 ) with the capacitor ( C1 ) and spark gap ( S ) formed a "closed" resonant circuit which generated the oscillations, while the secondary winding ( L2 ) was connected to the wire antenna ( A ) and ground, forming an "open" resonant circuit with ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Headphones

    Circumaural (around the ear) and supra-aural (over the ear) headphones use a band over the top of the head to hold the drivers in place. Another type, known as earbuds or earpieces , [ 1 ] consists of individual units that plug into the user's ear canal ; within that category have been developed cordless air buds using wireless technology.
