A/D converter
An analogue-digital converter converts an analogue input signal (a DC voltage) into a digital output signal, i.e. into a proportional number. The quantisation error caused by the stepwise digitisation
Addressing modes
Different possible ways of accessing registers and memory in the instruction set for a microcomputer. Such possible ways can be: implicit, absolute, indirect, relative etc.
Address
Memory location number for the unambiguous identification of a memory location. The number of elements from a finite quantity of words for the identification of storage cells (memory locations) in con
Additive (for lubricants)
Chemical additive that changes the existing characteristics of a fluid or adds new characteristics (CETOP RP 100). The natural substance mineral oil is lacking a series of characteristics for its task
Adaptive controller
Controller that automatically adapts to a changing controlled system. It is intended to ensure constant dynamic performance with a changing controlled system. For this purpose the microcomputer requir
Adaptive control
Feedback control system for adapting the programmed machining process on machine tools with the objective of safeguarding and optimising the process. It is characteristic that fluctuations in process
Adaptation
Adaptation (tracking) e.g. of the gain to changes in parameters in the controlled subsystem.
Air Cleaner Fine Test Dust (ACFTD)
Test dust for undertaking the multipass test according to ISO 4572. The quantities of the individual particle sizes are defined. In this way a consistent contamination basis for all multipass tests is
