reference voltage in a sentence

Examples

1. The Zener diode is therefore ideal for applications such as the generation of a reference voltage ( e . g . for an amplifier stage ), or as a voltage stabilizer for low-current applications.
2. Other alternatives are to use a equal voltage divider to supply the reference voltage to the A / D ( zero it out ) and then have the same circuit with the DUT in parallel to R2.
3. The controller keeps track of how often each switch is turned on in order to estimate how much additional charge was placed onto ( or removed from ) the integrator capacitor as a result of the reference voltages.
4. :: : If the power supply is not a battery, one might modulate its internal reference voltage so that it delivers the sawtooth directly . talk ) 23 : 32, 8 May 2009 ( UTC)
5. In audio, 0 dBm often corresponds to approximately 0.775 volts, since 0.775 V dissipates 1 mW in a 600 ? load . dBu measures against this reference voltage without the 600 ? restriction.
6. :: To expand on SGBailey's point, " ground " in the context in which you're asking means " the reference voltage " ( which we conventionally then call " 0 volts " ).
7. For example, V USB for the supply delivered to a USB device ( nominally 5 V ), V BAT for a battery, or V ref for the reference voltage for an analog-to-digital converter.
8. Although the Josephson voltage standard ( JVS ) does not realize the SI definition of the volt, it provides a very stable reference voltage that can be reproduced anywhere without the need to transfer artifacts such as Weston cells.
9. :: If it does slam the rails, though, connect the output back to the inverting input through a large value resistor and connect a largish value capacitor from the inverting intput to the ground ( reference voltage ).
10. The reference voltage varies from car to car, but is often 3.3 V or 2.6 V . When the fuel mixture becomes richer ( on a sudden, quick acceleration ), the voltage should decrease.
