  2. Energy level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_level

    t. e. A quantum mechanical system or particle that is bound —that is, confined spatially—can only take on certain discrete values of energy, called energy levels. This contrasts with classical particles, which can have any amount of energy. The term is commonly used for the energy levels of the electrons in atoms, ions, or molecules, which ...

  3. Power electronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_electronics

    A PCs power supply is an example of a piece of power electronics, whether inside or outside of the cabinet. Power electronics is the application of electronics to the control and conversion of electric power. The first high-power electronic devices were made using mercury-arc valves. In modern systems, the conversion is performed with ...

  4. Thermal management (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_management...

    A heat sink (aluminium) incorporating a heat pipe (copper) All electronic devices and circuitry generate excess heat and thus require thermal management to improve reliability and prevent premature failure. The amount of heat output is equal to the power input, if there are no other energy interactions. [ 1 ]

  5. Franck–Condon principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franck–Condon_principle

    In examining how much vibrational energy a molecule could acquire when it is excited to a higher electronic level, and whether this vibrational energy could be enough to immediately break apart the molecule, he drew three diagrams representing the possible changes in binding energy between the lowest electronic state and higher electronic states.

  6. Power management integrated circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_management...

    Power management ICs are solid state devices that control the flow and direction of electrical power. Many electrical devices use multiple internal voltages (e.g., 5 V, 3.3 V, 1.8 V, etc.) and sources of external power (e.g., wall outlet, battery, etc.), meaning that the power design of the device has multiple requirements for operation. A PMIC ...

  7. Carrier generation and recombination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier_generation_and...

    At absolute zero temperature, all of the electrons have energy below the Fermi level; but at non-zero temperatures the energy levels are filled following a Fermi-Dirac distribution. In undoped semiconductors the Fermi level lies in the middle of a forbidden band or band gap between two allowed bands called the valence band and the conduction ...

  8. Proportional–integral–derivative controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proportional–integral...

    Proportional–integral–derivative controller. A proportional–integral–derivative controller (PID controller or three-term controller) is a feedback -based Control loop mechanism commonly used in industrial control systems and various other applications requiring continuously modulated control. A PID controller continuously calculates an ...

  9. Battery management system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_management_system

    A battery management system (BMS) is any electronic system that manages a rechargeable battery (cell or battery pack) by facilitating the safe usage and a long life of the battery in practical scenarios while monitoring and estimating its various states (such as SoH, and SoC), [1] calculating secondary data, reporting that data, controlling its environment, authenticating or balancing it.
