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
The section of an adjustable frequency control that changes AC voltage to DC voltage See also rectification
(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
Any device that converts frequency, voltage or current from one value to another
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 dense material, such as lead or tungsten, used to convert a gamma ray into an electron-positron pair
changes a signal from one frequency range to another by mixing the input signal with one or more LO frequencies
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
Converts 3-wire tow vehicle electrical systems to 2-wire systems by integrating the stop and turn signal circuits as is common in trailer wiring
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 device used to convert a media type which carries a signal Example, 10BaseT to 10BaseFX converts and ethernet signal from UTP cable to fiber
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 repeater that also converts from one media type to another, such as from fiber to copper Often called a media adapter
An Electroic Device that changes alternating current (ac) to direct current (dc)
A module used by the printing system to convert a document description from one document format to another
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
In STELLA, a converter is used to represent something that modifies or affects the rate of change of the stock
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
A video game console peripheral used to bypass regional lockout on a video game console, allowing imported video games to be played on domestic video game consoles, but not circumvent copy protection
a converter that uses a platinum-iridium catalyst to oxidize pollutants and carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide and water; an antipollution device on an automotive exhaust system
(Otomotiv) Part of the exhaust system, this pollution-control device found on many newer cars it re-burns unburned gas in the exhaust system before it leaves your vehicle as exhaust
A catalytic converter is a device which is fitted to a car's exhaust to reduce the pollution coming from it. A reaction chamber typically containing a finely divided platinum-iridium catalyst into which exhaust gases from an automotive engine are passed together with excess air so that carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon pollutants are oxidized to carbon dioxide and water. a piece of equipment fitted to a car's exhaust system that reduces the amount of poisonous gases the engine sends out. In automobiles, a component of emission control systems used to reduce the discharge of noxious gases from the internal-combustion engine. The catalytic converter consists of an insulated chamber containing pellets of catalyst through which the exhaust gases are passed. The exhaust's hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide are converted to water vapour and carbon dioxide
{i} device for changing alternating currents to direct currents (Electricity); one who causes others to change their beliefs (religious, political, etc.)
A unit in an automatic transmission, quite similar to the fluid coupling, that transfers engine torque to the transmission input shaft It also cushions the flow of power Unlike the fluid coupling, the torque converter can multiply engine torque This is accomplished by installing one or more stators between the torus members In the torque converter the driving torus is referred to as the "pump" and the driven torus as the "turbine " The engine drives the impeller which in turn impels fluid against the vanes of a turbine connected through transmission gears to the drive shaft of the automobile The stator redirects oil flow from the turbine to boost impeller action and multiply engine torque
The torque converter converts hydraulic pressure within an automatic transmission to mechanical torque, which drives the drive shafts and, ultimately, the wheels of your car In design, the torque converter is similar to a turbine engine Fluid is forced under pressure through small passages called fins These passages vary in size and flip flop in direction As fluid is forced through the passages (which get smaller in size) a strong, almost solid "fluid coupling" is created This is what drives the driveshafts and wheels
A particular kind of fluid coupling with a third element added to the usual input and output turbines Called ""the stator,"" this additional element redirects the churning fluid against the output turbine, increasing torque This torque increase, however, is achieved at the expense of rpm and efficiency
