  2. Current loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_loop

    A major application of current loops is the industry de facto standard 420 mA current loop for process control applications, where they are extensively used to carry signals from process instrumentation to proportional–integral–derivative (PID) controllers, supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems, and programmable logic ...

  3. Dennard scaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dennard_scaling

    Fixed voltage scaling was the common scaling regime which ended around 2005 at the "power wall", when it was too difficult to keep the chip cool. Furthermore, at constant supply voltage, the field grows like S 1 {\displaystyle S^{1}} , and the off-current grows exponentially with the field, resulting in high static power consumption since the ...

    1.00 × 10 4 W eco: average power consumption per person in the United States in 2008 (87,216 kWh/year) 1.4 × 10 4 W tech: average power consumption of an electric car on EPA's Highway test schedule [25] [26] 1.45 × 10 4 W astro: power per square metre received from the Sun at Mercury's orbit at perihelion: 1.6–3.2 × 10 4 W

  5. Load factor (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_factor_(electrical)

    In electrical engineering the load factor is defined as the average load divided by the peak load in a specified time period. [1] It is a measure of the utilization rate, or efficiency of electrical energy usage; a high load factor indicates that load is using the electric system more efficiently, whereas consumers or generators that underutilize the electric distribution will have a low load ...

  6. Per-unit system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Per-unit_system

    In the power systems analysis field of electrical engineering, a per-unit system is the expression of system quantities as fractions of a defined base unit quantity. . Calculations are simplified because quantities expressed as per-unit do not change when they are referred from one side of a transformer to t

  7. Run-time estimation of system and sub-system level power ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run-time_estimation_of...

    A software program can be written using the equations 1 and 2 and the estimated power weights derived from the table to estimate the power consumption at run-time. For equation 1 the program also needs 5 samples of HPCs but in this example the PXA255 processor can only sample 2 events at any given time therefore multiple code execution is ...

  8. Load-loss factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load-loss_factor

    For electricity utilities, numbers about 0.2-0.3 are typical (cf. 0.22 for Toronto Hydro, [3] 0.33 for New Zealand [4]). Multiple empirical formulae exist that relate the loss factor to the load factor (Dickert et al. in 2009 listed nine [ 5 ] ).
