• Gate Turn-Off Switch
  A gate turn-off switch, also known as a gate-controlled switch (GCS) or gate turn-off thyristor (GTO), is similar to an SCR but can be turned off by a negative signal on the gate terminal. GTOs generally handle much lower currents than SCRs. GTOs have many characteristics of SCRs and transistors...
• Mix & match for theperfect switch panel
  such as pushbutton, rotary, sliding-type encoders, and directional switches. These get connected using wire harnesses, solder, or conductive adhesives. The connections, however, often break down from normal wear and tear. A new switch assembly technique promises to eliminate these interconnect woes...
• Switch Tips: Float-level switches
  field that the magnets generate actuates a magnetic reed switch mounted within the stem. The stem is a nonmagnetic metal or engineered plastic. The basic design provides an accuracy of about +-1/8 in. The float-on-stem configuration mounts in either the top or bottom of a tank. An alternative type...
• Switch Tips: Ultrasonic level switches
  from the sensing elements. There are two types of configurations for ultrasonic switches. The most compact package locates the sending and receiving transducers across from each other in a gap at the end of the switch body. The advantage of this style is that the sensing elements can sit within 0.25...

• Replacing NIS with Kerberos and LDAP HOWTO
  Switch. A system for configuring lookups of UNIX directories from various sources. Typical sources include local files, DNS, NIS and LDAP. Principal. The term for an entry in a Kerberos database. Distinguished Name. The term for an entry in an LDAP database. Software. You'll need the following...
• Mechanical Switches
  or a printed-circuit board. The conductive layers create a capacitance that decreases when a layer is touched. Interface circuitry converts the capacitance change into a usable switching action to drive logic systems or to switch analog signals. There are several types of touch-switch interface circuits...
• Solid-state relays
  main types of SSRs, classified by the type of input. Reed-relay coupled SSRs send the input signal through the coil of a reed relay. Closure of the reed switch triggers the thyristor into conduction. Transformer-coupled SSRs send an ac control signal through the primary of a small transformer...
• Instrument and control
  action and are self-aligning on assembly. Thus as the front knob turns the roller contacts move radially, held in and guided by an insulated slot in the rotor arm. These switches come as both maintained and spring-return types. Maintained switches employ a starwheel mechanism to hold the switch...
• Ethernet switches
  An Ethernet switch is an electronic device that manages connections on Ethernet networks. An example of a managed Ethernet switch: The MCS Series carries sixteen 10/100 TX ports with a multimode fiber option. It handles control protocols such as Profinet, EtherNet/IP and Modbus TCP and provides...
