We were on the lookout for ice.
I was in a 32 foot sailing yacht with writer and explorer Tristan Gooley, undertaking a
double-handed sail from Scotland through the Faroes up to 66 33 45.7 N and the midnight
sun. Now sailing out of the Arctic Circle we were approaching Iceland from the north, heading
for the Denmark Straits, where ice flowed south. The Admiralty Pilot warned of bergs but the
ice charts we had sailed with were over a week old. We needed an Update.
This book on electrostatic discharge phenomena is essentially a translation and
Update ofa Swedish edition from 1992.
The book is intended for people working with electronic circuits and
equipments, in application and development. All personnel should be aware of the
ESD-hazards, especially those responsible for quality. ESD-prevention is a part of
TQM (Total Quality Management). The book is also usable for courses on the
subject.
Since the original publication of Manual 74 in 1991, and the preceding
“Guidelines for Transmission Line Structural Loading” in 1984, the
understanding of structural loadings on transmission line structures has
broadened signifi cantly. However, improvements in computational capa-
bility have enabled the transmission line engineer to more easily deter-
mine structural loadings without properly understanding the parameters
that affect these loads. Many seasoned professionals have expressed
concern for the apparent lack of recent information on the topic of struc-
tural loadings as new engineers enter this industry. The Committee on
Electrical Transmission Structures is charged with the responsibility to
report, evaluate, and provide loading requirements of transmission struc-
tures. This task committee was therefore formed to Update and revise the
1991 manual.
The first edition as well as its forerunner of Kuffel and Abdullah published in
1970 and their translations into Japanese and Chinese languages have enjoyed
wide international acceptance as basic textbooks in teaching senior under-
graduate and postgraduate courses in High-Voltage Engineering. Both texts
have also been extensively used by practising engineers engaged in the design
and operation of high-voltage equipment. Over the years the authors have
received numerous comments from the text’s users with helpful suggestions
for improvements. These have been incorporated in the present edition. Major
revisions and expansion of several chapters have been made to Update the
continued progress and developments in high-voltage engineering over the
past two decades.
If register should be written or read.This value is passed to the calback functions which support either reading or writing register values. Writing means that the application registers should be Updated and reading means that the modbus protocol stack needs to know the current register values.See also: eMBRegHoldingCB(), eMBRegCoilsCB(), eMBRegDiscreteCB() and eMBReglnputCB().Enumeration values: MB_REG_READ Read register values and pass to protocol stack.MB_REG_WRITE Update register values.Note: Note all ports implement this function.A port which wants to get an callback must define the macro MB_PORT_HAS_CLOSE to 1.Returns: If the resources where released it return eMBErrorCode:: MB_ENOERR. If the protocol stack is not in the disabled state it returns eMBErrorCode:: MB_EILLSTATE.Examples: LINUX/demo.c, MCF5235TCP/demo.c, STR71XTCP/demo.c, WIN32/demo. cpp, and WIN32TCP/demo. cpp.his function disables processing of Modbus frames.Returns: If the protocol stack has been disabled
RX-8801 SA Features built-in 32.768 kHz DTCXO, High Stability Supports l'C-Bus's high speed mode (400 kHz)Alarm interrupt function for day, date, hour, and minute settings Fixed-cycle timer interrupt function Time Update interrupt function32.768 kHz output with OE function Auto correction of leap years Wide interface voltage range: 2.2 V to 5.5 V Wide time-keeping voltage range:1.8 V to 5.5 V Low current consumption: 0.84A/3V (Typ.)is an IC bus interface-compliant real-time clock which includes a 32.768 kHz DTCXO In addition to providing a calendar (year, month, date, day, hour, minute, second) function and a clock counter function, this module provides an abundance of other functions including an alarm function, fixed-cycle timer unction, time Update interrupt function, and 32.768 kHz output function.The devices in this module are fabricated via a C-MOS process for low current consumption, which enables ong-term battery back-up.
