L
LabVIEW Laboratory Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench—A program
development application based on the programming language G and
used commonly for test and measurement purposes.
LED Light-emitting diode.
linearity The adherence of device response to the equation R = KS, where
R = response, S = stimulus, and K = a constant.
LSB Least significant bit.
M
MAX Measurement & Automation Explorer—NI software for configuring
devices and channels.
maximum working
voltage The highest voltage with respect to ground that should be applied to an
input terminal during normal use, normally well under the breakdown
voltage for safety margin. Includes both the signal and common-mode
voltages.
MITE MXI Interface to Everything—A custom ASIC designed by NI that
implements the PCI bus interface. The MITE supports bus mastering
for high-speed data transfers over the PCI bus.
MSB Most significant bit.
mux Multiplexer—A switching device with multiple inputs that sequentially
connects each of its inputs to its output, typically at high speeds, in order
to measure several signals with a single analog input channel.
