`tors. capacitors.

`Carrel-item abbreviation: tam. It. Hate: The El {Systeme
`International d‘Unites] unit is the micrometer. The mi-
`
`cron, instead of the nanometer. which is widely used
`in the optics scientific community,
`is widely used by
`the filter optic technology community to express the
`wavelengths of light and the geometry of optical fibers.
`such as the core. cladding. and mode field radii and
`diameters. This tends to simplify wavelength and geo—
`mern'c comparisons. The wavelengdrs of light used in
`fiber optics are of the order of 1 pro tram}. which
`maltes the micron a convenient unit in fiber optics for
`espressu'ig optical wavelengths and describing the go-

`
`microphone: l. A. device that converts variations in
`sound pressure. in. sored waves. into corresponding
`electrical or optical signals. Note; in a fiber optic loop.
`the microphone is a fiber optic sensor that modulates
`lighrwaves which are transmitted to a fiber optic rc-
`oeiver in the fiber optic stationlregererator section at
`the switching center. 2. ll. transducer that converts a
`sound wave to {at an electrical signal or lb} an optical
`signal. 3. A device that converts analog sound signals
`into analog electrical signals. See also analog signal.

`
`microphonits: The generation. ortha variation.of elec.
`trical currents or voltages. or the variation of optical
`signals.
`in a circuit element or component caused by
`its own ttretchenical vibration. such as {a} an optical
`fiber that trier-ates causing variations in its refractive
`intles and a consequent modulation oflightwaves prop-
`agating within it. {h} a conductor that vibrates in a
`magnetic field in such a marerer that the magnetic hurt
`linkage changes cause a voltage to be induced in it.
`and {e} a capacitor that vibrates causing its capacitance
`to change which alters the content in the circuit in which
`it is ooruiectod. Note: Microphones may be undesirable
`when it
`introduces noise into a circuit and desirable
`when used to induce signals in circuits. such as in
`microphones. telephone transmitters. and vibration sen-
`sors. See mitt) capocitanoemapardtor. circuit. conduc-

`microproeeuor: ]. A central processing unit {CPUJ
`mounted on a single chip. i.e.. on an integrated circuit
`chip. such as an optical inbegated circuit {DIG}. 1. An
`arithmetic. logic. or control unit constructed on a single
`large-scale integrated {LSI‘J circuit chip. J. A processor
`that executes microoodes or microprograms. 4. A proc-
`essor that is constructed of microelectronic circuits or
`
`microoptical circuits. Erratic central presuming unit.
`chip. computer. large-scale integrated circuit chip.
`optical integrated circuit, processor.
`
`microprocessor card: a smart card that is] contains
`a microprocessor. iht performs one or more functions,
`such as cryptographic algorithm management aruiaecret
`code mattagement. that may be used in such areas as
`banking and pay television. and {c} may he a user-
`specilic application-oriented computer-programmed
`card. See also algorithm. cmnmunieationa security.
