LOCAL ACTIONA continuation of current flow within a battery cell when there is no external load. Caused by impurities in the electrode [1]. | ||
LOGARITHMIC RECEIVERReceiver that uses a linear logarithmic amplifier (lin-log) instead of a normal linear amplifier [18]. | ||
LOGIC CIRCUITThe primary control information processor in digital equipment; made up of electronic gates and so named because their operation is described by simple equations of a specialized logic algebra [13]. | ||
LOGIC DIAGRAMIn computers and data processing equipment, a diagram representing the logical elements and their interconnections without necessarily expressing construction or engineering details [13]. | ||
LOGIC ELEMENTThe smallest building blocks that can be represented by operators in an appropriate system of symbolic logic. Typical logic elements are the AND-gate and the flip-flop, which can be represented as operators in a suitable symbolic logic. Also a device that performs the logic function [13]. | ||
LOGIC INSTRUCTIONAny instruction that executes a logic operation that is defined in symbolic logic, such as AND, OR, NAND, or NOR [13]. | ||
LOGIC OPERATIONA nonarithmetical operation in a computer, such as comparing, selecting, making references, matching, sorting, and merging, where the logical YES or NO quantities are involved [13]. | ||
LOGIC SWITCHA diode matrix (See MATRIX) or other switching arrangement that is capable of directing an input signal to one of several outputs [13]. | ||
LOGIC SYMBOLA symbol used to represent a logic element graphically. Also a symbol used to represent a logic operator [13]. | ||
