LIGHT RAYSLight waves emitting from a source in straight lines [10]. | ||
LIGHT-EMITTING DIODEA PN-junction diode that emits visible light when it is forward biased. Depending on the material used to make the diode, the light may be red, green, or amber [7]. | ||
LIGHTHOUSE TUBEAn electron tube shaped like a lighthouse that is designed to handle large amounts of power at uhf frequencies [6]. | ||
LIMITERA device that prevents (limits) a waveform from exceeding a specified value [9]. | ||
LIN-LOG AMPLIFIERAn amplifier in which the response is linear for weak signals and logarithmic for large signals [18]. | ||
LINE OF FORCEA line in an electric or magnetic field that shows the direction of the force [1]. | ||
LINE OF SIGHTStraight line from a radar antenna to a target [18]. | ||
LINE-PULSING MODULATORCircuit that stores energy and forms pulses in the same circuit element, usually the pulse-forming network (pfn) [18]. | ||
LINEARHaving an output that varies in direct proportion to the input [6]. | ||
