INTERMEDIATE FREQUENCYA lower frequency to which an RF echo is converted for ease of amplification [18]. | ||
INTERMEDIATE POWER AMPLIFIERThe amplifier between the oscillator and final power amplifier [12]. | ||
INTERMEDIATE-LEVEL MAINTENANCEDirect support and technical assistance to user organizations. Tenders and shore-based repair facilities [14]. | ||
INTERSECTION LAWIn Boolean algebra, the law which states that if one input to an AND gate is already TRUE, then the output will depend upon the state of the other inputs only [13]. | ||
INVERSELYInverted or reversed in position or relationship [1]. | ||
INVERTTo change a physical or logical state to its opposite state [13]. | ||
INVERTERA circuit with one input and one output. Its function is to invert or reverse the input. When the input is high, the output is low, and vice versa. The inverter is sometimes called a NOT circuit, since it produces the reverse of the input [13]. | ||
IONAn electrically charged atom or group of atoms. Negative ions have an excess of electrons; positive ions have a deficiency of electrons [1]. | ||
IONIZATION(1) The process of producing ions. (2) The electrically charged particles produced by high-energy radiation, such as light or ultraviolet rays, or by the collision of particles during thermal agitation [6] [10]. | ||
