Glossary of Terms

Address: A pattern of characters that identifies a unique storage location

Algorithm: A set of procedures to obtain a given result

Ambient: Condition on immediately surrounding atmosphere or area: usually refers to temperature or pressure

Analog: Refers to circuitry; also called linear circuitry; circuitry that varies certain properties or electricity continuously and smoothly over a range

Anti-Static Material: A slightly conductive material that allows the net charge to be drained off through a path; an electrostatic protective material having a surface resistively greater than 104 but not greater than 109 Ohms per square inch (does not generate static electricity)

Binary Number System or Binary Code: A method of writing numbers by using two digits, 0 and 1

Bit: The smallest possible piece of information; a specification of one of two possible conditions. (Bits are written as 1 for yes and 0 for no.)

Bus: Large trace or foil extending around the edge of a PCB to provide conduction for several sources

Byte: A set of adjacent binary digits operated upon as a unit (usually 8 bits)

Charge: The product of capacitance times voltage

CMOS: Complimentary Metal Oxide Substrate semiconductor

Computer: At least one CPU together with input, output, control switch buttons and memory units

Conductive Material: Material that conducts electrical charge (Because it conducts charge, there is no potential difference across or storage of a static charge.); electrostatic protective material having a maximum surface resistivity of 10 Ohms per square unit, or a maximum volume resistivity of 10 Ohms/cm.

Control Buttons: Push buttons on the display bezels to operate the increase/decrease, advance, or silence functions

Control Switches: Sometimes called dip switches and used for additional programming features on all levels
