  2. Test probe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_probe

    This allows the heads of active probes to be extremely small, making them very convenient for use with modern high-density electronic circuits. Passive probes and a modest active probe design is discussed in an application note by Williams. [14] The Tektronix P6201 is an early DC to 900 MHz active FET probe. [15]

  3. Mechanical probe station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_probe_station

    If the device is being electrically stimulated, the signal is acquired by the mechanical probe and is displayed on an oscilloscope or SMU. The mechanical probe station is often used in the failure analysis of semiconductor devices. There are two types of mechanical probes: active and passive. Passive probes usually consist of a thin tungsten ...

  4. EMF measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMF_measurement

    Measurements of the EMF are obtained using an E-field sensor or H-field sensor which can be isotropic or mono-axial, active or passive. A mono-axial, omnidirectional probe is a device which senses the Electric (short dipole) or Magnetic field linearly polarized in a given direction.

  5. Phased array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phased_array

    The German Navy and the Royal Dutch Navy have developed the Active Phased Array Radar System (APAR). The MIM-104 Patriot and other ground-based antiaircraft systems use phased array radar for similar benefits. Phased arrays are used in naval sonar, in active (transmit and receive) and passive (receive only) and hull-mounted and towed array sonar

  6. Active-pixel sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active-pixel_sensor

    An active-pixel sensor (APS) is an image sensor, which was invented by Peter J.W. Noble in 1968, where each pixel sensor unit cell has a photodetector (typically a pinned photodiode) and one or more active transistors. [1] [2] In a metal–oxide–semiconductor (MOS) active-pixel sensor, MOS field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) are used as ...

  7. Plasma diagnostics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_diagnostics

    This is known as the single-probe method. (b) The surface areas are very small in comparison with the dimensions of the vessel containing the plasma and approximately equal to each other. This is the double-probe method. Conventional Langmuir probe theory assumes collisionless movement of charge carriers in the space charge sheath around the probe.

  8. Active investing vs. passive investing: What’s the difference?

    www.aol.com/finance/active-investing-vs-passive...

    Active and passive investing each have some positives and negatives, but the vast majority of investors are going to be best served by taking advantage of passive investing through an index fund.

  9. Laser trimming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_trimming

    One type of passive trimmer uses a pressure chamber to enable resistor trimming in a single run. The LTCC boards are contacted by test probes on the assembly side and trimmed with a laser beam from the resistor side. This trimming method requires no contact points between the resistances, because the fine pitch adapter contacts the component on ...
