part of: electronic_equipment
part: capacitor__capacitance__condenser__electrical_condenser an electrical device characterized by its capacity to store an electric charge
part: choke_coil__chokecoil__choke__choking_coil__chokingcoil a coil of low resistance and high inductance used in electrical circuits to pass direct current and attenuate alternating current
part: electrical_relay__relay electrical device such that current flowing through it in one circuit can switch on and off a current in a second circuit
part: electromagnet a temporary magnet made by coiling wire around an iron core; when current flows in the coil the iron becomes a magnet
part: armature coil in which voltage is induced by motion through a magnetic field
part: resistor__resistance an electrical device that resists the flow of electrical current
part: short_circuit__shortcircuit__short accidental contact between two points in an electric circuit that have a potential difference
part: electrical_shunt__shunt__bypass a conductor having low resistance in parallel with another device to divert a fraction of the current
part: thermionic_vacuum_tube__tube__vacuum_tube__thermionic_tube__electron_tube__thermionic_valve electronic device consisting of a system of electrodes arranged in an evacuated glass or metal envelope
part: anode a positively charged electrode by which electrons leave an electrical device
part: cathode a negatively charged electrode that is the source of electrons in an electrical device
part: electrode a conductor used to make electrical contact with some part of a circuit
part: control_grid__controlgrid__grid an electrode placed between the cathode and anode of a vacuum tube to control the flow of electrons through the tube
part: plate.anode the positively charged electrode in a vacuum tube
