A
Amplifier
A device, either a single stage or a large scale
circuit with multiple stages for creating gain,
i.e. it makes small signals larger.
Antenna
A device, such as a rod or wire, which picks up
a received radio frequency signal or radiates a
transmitted RF signal.
ATSC (Advanced Television Systems
Committee)
The Advanced Television Systems Committee,
Inc., is an international, non-profit organization
developing voluntary standards for digital
television. The high definition television
standards defined by the ATSC produce wide
screen 16:9 images up to 1920x1080 pixels
in size -- more than six times the display
resolution of the earlier standard. However,
many different image sizes are also supported,
so that up to six standard-definition “virtual
channels” can be broadcast on a single 6 MHz
TV channel.
C
Coaxial
A single copper conductor, surrounded with
a layer of insulation, covered by a surrounding
copper shield and finally, an insulating jacket.
An unbalanced transmission line with constant
impedance. In audio, this type is commonly
used for low level, line signals terminated in
RCA connectors.
