(Askeri) ŞİFRE MAKİNESİ: Kriptoğrafide; haberleri süratle şifreleyen veya şifreleri çözen mekanik veya elektrikli bir cihaz. Örn. M209 şifre makinası gibi
A device that changes the value of a signal or quantity Examples: DC-DC; a device that delivers dc power when energized from a dc source Fly-Back; a type of switching power supply circuit See also Flyback Converter Forward; A type of switching supply circuit See also Forward Converter
Also known as processor Device for changing the frequency of a television signal A cable headend converter changes signals from frequencies at which they are broadcast to clear channels that are available on the cable distribution system A set-top converter is added in front of a subscriber's television receiver to change the frequency of the midband, superband, or hyperband signals to a suitable channel or channels (typically a low- VHF channel) which the television receiver is able to tune
(Power) Converts an input power line voltage to a different output power line voltage In a frequent application, such a converter reduces the 240V line output common in Europe to the 120V common in the U S This conversion permits the operation of electronic products intended for the U S from European power sources
A device that accepts a DC input voltage and produces a DC output voltage Typically the output produced is at a different voltage level than the input However, converters sometimes have the same input/output, and are used to provide isolation, power bus regulation, ground loops elimination, etc
{i} device for changing alternating currents to direct currents (Electricity); one who causes others to change their beliefs (religious, political, etc.)
This is a removable device which allows a fountain pen to draw ink Converters are usually the same shape as the cartridge and plug into the pen in place of the cartridge Fountain pens using converters can also take cartridges
A person or a company which buys grey goods and sells them as finished fabrics A converter organizes and manages the process of finishing the fabric to a buyers' specifications, particularly the bleaching, dyeing, printing, etc
A brick-lined, cylindrical vessel in the smelter for processing molten copper matte from the reverberatory furnace; the impurities, principally iron and sulphur, are removed by blowing air through the molten bath; the result is blister copper (97% purity)
A converter is a device that changes something into a different form. see also catalytic converter. a piece of equipment that changes the form of something, especially so that it can be more easily used
A retort, used in the Bessemer process, in which molten cast iron is decarburized and converted into steel by a blast of air forced through the liquid metal
An apparatus which can convert one power form to that of another In the case of shore power converters this form can include voltage, frequency, or the number of phases
Device that accepts a DC input voltage Typically the output produced is at a different voltage level than the input However, converters sometimes have the same input/output and are used to provide noise isolation, power bus regulation, etc
A reactor that uses one kind of fuel and produces another For example a converter charged with uranium isotopes might consume uranium-235 and produce plutonium from uranium-238 See also: Breeder
A fluid coupling device which multiplies torque between an engine and automatic transmission/transaxle When a vehicle is stopped, a converter allows enough fluid slippage, so the engine can idle without stalling
A program that converts a text file, or a portion of a text file, from one format to another For example, FrontPage includes a Microsoft Word to HTML converter See also filter
