`transceiver
`
`transistor —
`
`transceiver n. Short for transmitter/receiver. A device
`that can both transmit andreceive signals. On LANs(local
`area networks), a transceiveris the device that connects a
`computer to the networkand that converts signals to and
`from parallel and serial form.
`transceiver cable n. A cable that is used to connect a
`host adapter within a computer to a LAN(local area net-
`work). See also AUI cable, LAN.
`
`transducern. A device that converts one form of energy
`into another. Electronic transducerseither convert electric
`energy to another form of energy or convert nonelectric to
`electric energy.
`
`transform vb. 1. To change the appearanceor format of
`data withoutaltering its content; that is, to encode infor-
`mation according to predefined rules. 2. In mathematics
`and computergraphics,to alter the position, size, or nature
`of an object by movingit to anotherlocation (translation),
`makingit larger or smaller (scaling), turning it (rotation),
`changingits description from one type of coordinate sys-
`tem to another, and so on.
`
`transformer n. A device used to change the voltage of an
`alternating currentsignal or to change the impedanceof an
`alternating currentcircuit.
`
`transient adj. 1. Fleeting, temporary, or unpredictable.
`2. Of or pertaining to the region of memory usedforpro-
`grams, such as applications, that are read from disk stor-
`age and that reside in memory temporarily until they are
`replaced by other programs. In this context, transient can
`also refer to the programs themselves. 3. In electronics, of
`or pertaining to a short-lived, abnormal, and unpredictable
`increase in powersupply, such as a voltage spike or surge.
`Transient time is the interval during which a changein
`currentor voltage is building up or decaying.
`
`transfert n. 1. The movementof data from onelocation
`to another. 2. The passing of program control from one
`portion of code to another.
`transfer? vb. To move data from oneplaceto another,
`especially within a single computer. Compare transmit.
`transfer rate n. The rate at which a circuit or a communi-
`cations channel transfers information from sourceto desti-
`nation, as over a networkor to and from a diskdrive.
`Transfer rate is measuredin units of information perunit
`transient suppressorn. A circuit designed to reduce or
`of time—for example, bits per second or characters per
`eliminate unwantedelectrical signals or voltages.
`second—and can be measuredeither as a raw rate, which
`transistor n. Short for transfer resistor. A solid-state cir-
`is the maximum transfer speed, or as an averagerate,
`cuit component, usually with three leads, in whichavolt-
`which includes gaps between blocksofdata as part of the
`age or a current controls the flow of another current. The
`transmission time.
`transistor can serve manyfunctions, including those of
`amplifier, switch, and oscillator, and is a fundamental
`componentof almostall modern electronics. See the illus-
`tration. See also base (definition 3), FET, NPN transistor,
`PNPtransistor.
`
`transfer statement n. A statementin a programming
`languagethat transfers the flow of execution to another
`location in the program. See also branchinstruction,
`CALLstatement, GOTO statement, jumpinstruction.
`transfer time n. The time elapsed betweenthestart of a
`data transfer operation and its completion.
