A key process input variable (KPIV) is a process input that provides a significant impact on the output variation of a process or a system, or on the key process output variable (KPOV) of a product.

Figure 6. The MAXREFDES71 subsystem block diagram. All the data shown here were generated on the MAXREFDES71# reference design board. Now designers can produce new closed-loop industrial systems with ...

Input: an LDR detects when it gets dark. Process: a microcontroller processes the signal from the LDR. Output: the system turns on the street light LEDs.

An artificial neural network models biological synapses and neurons and can be used to make predictions for complex data sets. Neural networks and their associated algorithms are among the most ...

Mike Vorster, Contributing Editor Life is often not as difficult as it seems, and it is a good idea to ratchet back on complexity, keep things simple, and stick to what is important. The input/process ...

A computer's Basic Input Output System and Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor together handle a rudimentary and essential process: they set up the computer and boot the operating system. The ...

Figure 2 shows a simplified diagram of an LM5001 boost/flyback regulator in a negative buck topology. Figure 2: Negative buck regulator implementation using a wide input-voltage range, 1 A monolithic ...
