CRYSTAL MICROPHONEA microphone that uses the piezoelectric effect of crystalline matter to generate a voltage from sound waves [12]. | ||
CRYSTAL OVENA closed oven maintained at a constant temperature in which a crystal and its holder are enclosed to reduce frequency drift [9]. | ||
CURRENTThe movement of electrons past a reference point. The passage of electrons through a conductor. Measured in amperes [1]. | ||
CURRENT RATINGThe safe current-carrying capacity of a wire or cable on a continuous basis [4]. | ||
CURRENT REGULATORA circuit that provides a constant current output [7]. | ||
CURRENT STANDING-WAVE RATIO (ISWR)The ratio of maximum to minimum current along a transmission line [10]. | ||
CURRENT-FEED METHODSame as CENTER-FEED METHOD [10]. | ||
CUSPSSharp phase reversals [12]. | ||
CUTOFFThe condition in a tube or transistor whereby the reverse bias prevents current flow [13]. | ||
