BACK RESISTANCE | ||
BALANCED MIXER | ||
BALANCED PHASE DETECTORA circuit that controls the oscillator frequency (afc) [17]. | ||
BAND-REJECT FILTER | ||
BANDPASS FILTER | ||
BANDWIDTH | ||
BARRETTERA type of bolometer characterized by an increase in resistance as the dissipated power rises [16]. | ||
BASE The element in a transistor that controls the flow of current carriers [7]. (1) A reference value. (2) A number that is multiplied by itself as many times as indicated by an exponent. (3) Same as radix. (4) The region between the emitter and collector of a transistor that receives minority carriers injected from the emitter. It is the element that corresponds to the control grid of an electron tube [13]. | ||
BASE-INJECTION MODULATORSimilar to a control-grid modulator. The gain of a transistor is varied by changing the bias on its base [12]. | ||
BATTERYA device for converting chemical energy into electrical energy [1]. | ||
