Voltage Identification Digital — or VID is a circuit concept developed to provide the central processing unit (CPU) of a computer with the appropriate supply voltage. Instead of having a power supply unit generate some fixed voltage, the CPU uses a small set of digital signals,… … Wikipedia
Voltage regulator tube — A voltage regulator tube (VR tube) is an electronic component used as a shunt regulator to hold a voltage constant at a pre determined level.Physically, these devices resemble vacuum tubes, but there are two main differences: * Their glass… … Wikipedia
Voltage regulator — A popular three pin 12 V DC voltage regulator IC. A voltage regulator is an electrical regulator designed to automatically maintain a constant voltage level. A voltage regulator may be a simple feed forward design or may include negative feedback … Wikipedia
Voltage doubler — A voltage doubler is an electronic circuit which charges capacitors from the input voltage and switches these charges in such a way that, in the ideal case, exactly twice the voltage is produced at the output as at its input. The simplest of… … Wikipedia
Nominal watt — Nominal wattage is used to simplify the measurement of the efficiency of a loudspeaker. The impedance of a loudspeaker varies with frequency. This means that if different sine wave tones are fed into the loudspeaker at the same voltage (or the… … Wikipedia
Power supply unit (computer) — Power supply unit with top cover removed A power supply unit (PSU) supplies direct current (DC) power to the other components in a computer. It converts general purpose alternating current (AC) electric power from the mains (110 V to… … Wikipedia
Real versus nominal value — For the distinction between real purchasing power and money value, see Real versus nominal value (economics). The distinction between real value and nominal value occurs in many fields. From a philosophical viewpoint, nominal value represents an… … Wikipedia
High-voltage direct current — HVDC or high voltage, direct current electric power transmission systems contrast with the more common alternating current systems as a means for the bulk transmission of electrical power. The modern form of HVDC transmission uses technology… … Wikipedia
