Voltage drop — is the reduction in voltage in an electrical circuit between the source and load. In electrical wiring national and local electrical codes may set guidelines for maximum voltage drop allowed in a circuit, to ensure reasonable efficiency of… … Wikipedia
Voltage multiplier — Villard cascade voltage multiplier. A voltage multiplier is an electrical circuit that converts AC electrical power from a lower voltage to a higher DC voltage, typically by means of a network of capacitors and diodes. Voltage multipliers can be… … Wikipedia
Standard electrode potential — In electrochemistry, the standard electrode potential, abbreviated Eo, E0, or EO (with a superscript plimsoll character, pronounced nought), is the measure of individual potential of a reversible electrode (at equilibrium) at standard state,… … Wikipedia
Standard cell — For the battery used as a voltage reference, see Weston cell. In semiconductor design, standard cell methodology is a method of designing Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) with mostly digital logic features. Standard cell… … 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 divider — In electronics, a voltage divider (also known as a potential divider) is a simple linear circuit that produces an output voltage ( V out) that is a fraction of its input voltage ( V in). Voltage division refers to the partitioning of a voltage… … 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
Voltage regulator module — A voltage regulator module or VRM, sometimes called PPM (power processing module) is an electronic device that provides a microprocessor the appropriate supply voltage. It can be soldered to the motherboard or be an installable device. It allows… … Wikipedia
