eSATAp (External Power over Serial ATA) Definition In computing, eSATAp (also known as Power over eSATA, Power eSATA, eSATA / USB Combo, eSATA USB Hybrid Port / EUHP) is a combined port for external storage devices. An eSATA or USB device can be plugged into an eSATAp port. The socket is cut out for both types of devices to ensure that a plug can only be inserted in the correct way.   However, eSATA use requires an additional power supply (e.g. Power over USB). Corresponding cards with eSATAp slots are also offered. With Power eSATA, the hardware manufacturer MSI tries to solve the problem of the missing power supply. With this modified eSATA connector, part of the USB technology for the power supply was built into the eSATA connector.   There is also the eSATApD extension from hardware manufacturer Delock, which uses 12 V in addition to 5 V and thus also allows the operation of 3.5″ hard drives without an additional power supply.   USB devices can usually also be connected to an eSATAp socket, which is indicated by a corresponding logo.

User Account Control (UAC)   Definition User Account Control (UAC) is a mandatory access control enforcement feature introduced with Microsoft's Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 operating systems. It aims to improve the security of Microsoft Windows by limiting application software to standard user privileges until an administrator authorizes an increase or elevation. In this way, only applications trusted by the user may receive administrative privileges, and malware should be kept from compromising the operating system. In other words, a user account may have administrator privileges assigned to it, but applications that the user runs do not inherit those privileges unless they are approved beforehand or the user explicitly authorizes it.

SCSI (Small Computer System Interface)   Definition Unter Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) werden standardisierte Protokolle zur Steuerung der Kommunikation zwischen Computern und Peripheriegeräten zusammengefasst. SCSI-Protokolle regeln die Übertragung der Daten und den Zugriff auf die jeweilige Schnittstelle, zwischen Massenspeicher (z.B. Festplatte) und Controller (Mainboard). Ursprünglich beinhaltete SCSI auch Hardware-Schnittstellen mit denen Peripheriegeräte wie Festplatten, Drucker, optische Laufwerke und viele weitere angeschlossen werden konnten. Diese Schnittstellen finden allerdings heute kaum noch Verwendung und wurden durch Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) bzw. SATA-Anschlüsse abgelöst.   Referenzen Wikipedia: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_Computer_System_Interface Elektronik-Kompendium: https://www.elektronik-kompendium.de/sites/com/0608211.htm Artikel in anderen Sprachen: English article   ...

Jack plug   Definition Jack plugs, also known as line plugs in communication technology for headphones, are two-pole and multi-pole coaxial connectors widely used worldwide for the transmission of small electrical signals and high power in power amplifiers in stage technology or a pure AC or DC voltage in the low voltage range.   The tip and the sleeve of the two-pole jack plug correspond to the inner conductor (core) and the outer conductor (shield, ground) of the coaxial cable. For multi-pole plugs, each ring corresponds to another concentric inner cylinder and contact.   In English, the three-pole is called TRS connector for tip, ring and sleeve, multi-pole as TRRS etc. - colloquially also audio plug or audio jack.

DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting – Terrestrial) Definition DVB-T (abbreviation for Digital Video Broadcasting - Terrestrial) is a variant of Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) used for radio transmission of digital radio and television signals via terrestrial (earthbound) paths. Reception of pure DVB-T was switched off in the course of the switchover to DVB-T2.   DVB-T was defined in 1997 by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) in the EN 300 744 standard and is the standard primarily in various European, Asian and African countries as well as in Australia.   Under the term DVB-T2, the successor standard was defined in 2008 by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) with the designation EN 302 755.   With DVB-T2, transmission of more programs or in better quality (HD) is possible with the same channel bandwidth, but DVB-T2 is not compatible with DVB-T.  References Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVB-T Article in other languages: Deutsch   ...

Slimline SATA   Definition In Notebooks, DVD-Playern und Spielkonsolen werden vorzugsweise Slimline-Laufwerke verbaut. Diese Laufwerke weisen eine verringerte Baugröße (üblicherweise 12,7 mm Höhe,128 mm Breite und 129 mm Tiefe) auf, wodurch sie auch eine spezielle Form des SATA-Anschlusses benötigen. Dieser wurde erstmals unter SATA 2.6 definiert und besteht aus einem Signalsegment, sowie einem Stromversorgungssegment. Der Slimline Connector hat eine lediglich 6-polige Stromversorgung, welche ausschließlich 5 V Geräte versorgen kann.   Segment Pin Bezeichnung Funktion Signalsegment S1 GND Masse S2 A+ Differentielles Signal S3 A- Differentielles Signal S4 GND Masse S5 B+ Differentielles Signal S6 B- Differentielles Signal S7 GND Masse Stromversorgungssegment P1 DP Gerät vorhanden P2 +5V Versorgungsspannung P3 +5V Versorgungsspannung P4 MD Hersteller-Diagnose P5 GND Masse P6 GND Masse   Referenzen Wikipedia: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_ATA#Slimline_Connector Wikipedia: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/SlimLine Artikel in anderen Sprachen: English article   ...

Slimline SATA   Definition Slimline drives are preferably installed in notebooks, DVD players and game consoles. They have a reduced size (usually 12.7 mm height,128 mm width and 129 mm depth), which also makes them need a special form of SATA connector. This was first defined under SATA 2.6 and consists of a signal segment and a power supply segment. The slimline connector has only a 6-pin power supply, which can only supply 5V devices.

TCQ (Tagged Command Queuing) Definition Tagged Command Queuing (TCQ) is a feature that was originally introduced with the SCSI-2 and later with the ATA-4 specification. Similar to the Native Command Queuing (NCQ) function of the S-ATA-II specification, it ensures an acceleration of write or read processes on hard disks.   For example, if there are multiple read requests in the command queue, each request is first tagged according to its place in the queue. Then the hard disk controller reorders the requests so that the total time of all requests is minimised.

Fibre Channel Definition Fibre Channel (FC) is a standard interface from the field of storage networks.   Similar to classic networks where each network card has a MAC address, with Fibre Channel each device has a WWNN (World Wide Node Name) as well as each port per device has a WWPN (World Wide Port Name). This is a 64-bit value (usually represented in hexadecimal) that uniquely identifies each Fibre Channel device. Fibre Channel devices can have more than one port, in which case the device still has only one WWNN, but it has WWPN in the same number as it has ports. The WWNN and the WWPN are usually very similar. References Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_Channel Article in other languages: Deutsch ... View more

mSATA (mini-SATA) Definition mSATA wurde im September 2009 von Samsung und der JEDEC spezifiziert, um kleinere Speicher zu ermöglichen. Physisch handelt es sich um den gleichen Anschluss wie bei Mini PCI Express, allerdings werden die Leitungen elektrisch wie SATA-Kabel angesteuert. Dabei verwendet mSATA entweder die erste (1,5 Gbit/s), zweite (3,0 Gbit/s) oder dritte (6,0 Gbit/s) Revision der SATA-Spezifikation zur Übertragung der Signale.    Zu den ersten Produkten mit mSATA-Speicher gehören einige Notebooks. Bedingt durch die relativ späte Standardisierung sind auch viele Produkte auf dem Markt, die eigene, zu mSATA inkompatible Schnittstellen und Formfaktoren verwenden.

mSATA (mini-SATA) Definition mSATA was specified by JEDEC in September 2009 to allow for smaller memory. Physically, it is the same connection as Mini PCI Express, but the lines are electrically controlled like SATA cables. Here, mSATA uses either the first (1.5 Gbit/s), second (3.0 Gbit/s) or third (6.0 Gbit/s) revision of the SATA specification to transmit the signals.   The first products with mSATA storage include some notebooks. Due to the relatively late standardisation, there are also many products on the market that use their own interfaces and form factors that are incompatible with mSATA.

TCQ (Tagged Command Queuing) Definition Tagged Command Queuing (TCQ) ist eine Eigenschaft, die ursprünglich mit der SCSI-2 und später dann auch mit der ATA-4-Spezifikation eingeführt wurde. Ähnlich der Native-Command-Queuing-Funktion (NCQ) der S-ATA-II-Spezifikation sorgt sie bei Festplatten für eine Beschleunigung der Schreib- oder auch Lesevorgänge.   Befinden sich z. B. mehrere Leseanforderungen in der Befehlswarteschlange (engl. command queue), so wird zunächst jede Anforderung mit einer Markierung (engl. tag) versehen, die dem Platz in der Warteschlange entspricht. Dann sortiert der Festplattencontroller die Anforderungen so um, dass die Gesamtzeit aller Anforderungen minimiert wird. Referenzen Wikipedia Artikel in anderen Sprachen: English article ...

Question Why there is ice forming on the back wall of the cooling unit?   Answer The more warm air flows into the interior of the refrigerator, the more likely it is that a layer of ice will form on the back wall. This is because when warm air cools down, the moisture settles on the back wall and freezes.   Note the following points: Don't leave the door open too long, otherwise the appliance will constantly cool down and run at full power. Perhaps the door no longer closes properly. You can check this by putting a switched-on torch in the interior, closing the door and looking in a darkened room to see if light is shining through at the edges. Where this is the case, check whether there are any objects preventing the door from closing. If necessary, remove these objects. If there were no objects in between and light is still shining through in some places, then the rubber (seal) on the door may have warped. The rubber on the door can be carefully warmed up with e.g. an ordinary hair dryer (hair dryer) and thus brought back into shape. Only put food that has already cooled down in the refrigerator.
