Despite being well documented, nonlinearity—its theory and applications—is often viewed as a novelty or strange anomaly. Here, we’ll argue the opposite point of view. Nonlinear and negative ...

It appears that no particular approximate [nonlinear] filter is consistently better than any other, though . . . any nonlinear filter is better than a strictly linear one. 1 The Kalman filter is a ...

Thermistor-temperature-sensing devices present a design challenge if you intend to use such a device over its entire temperature range. Typically, the thermistor is a high-impedance, resistive device ...

IN a paper entitled “Contact Non-Linearity, with reference to the Metal Rectifier and the Carborundum Ceramic Non-Linear Resistor” (j. Inst. Elec. Eng., 89, Pt. 1, No. 23 ; November 1942), A.

Resistor symbol (U.S. and Japan). where P is the power in watts, V is the voltage in volts, and R is the resistance in ohms. Types of resistors Fixed resistors. A fixed resistor is one in which the ...
