    USB OTG defines two roles for devices: OTG A-device and OTG B-device, specifying which side supplies power to the link, and which initially is the host. The OTG A-device is a power supplier, and an OTG B-device is a power consumer. In the default link configuration, the A-device acts as a USB host with the B-device acting as a USB peripheral.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMD_Platform_Security...

    The AMD Platform Security Processor ( PSP ), officially known as AMD Secure Technology, is a trusted execution environment subsystem incorporated since about 2013 into AMD microprocessors. [ 1] According to an AMD developer's guide, the subsystem is "responsible for creating, monitoring and maintaining the security environment" and "its ...

  4. ACPI - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACPI

    ACPI. Advanced Configuration and Power Interface ( ACPI) is an open standard that operating systems can use to discover and configure computer hardware components, to perform power management (e.g. putting unused hardware components to sleep), auto configuration (e.g. Plug and Play and hot swapping ), and status monitoring.

    Congestive heart failure patients that were implanted with an ICD had an all-cause death risk 23% lower than placebo and an absolute decrease in mortality of 7.2 percentage points after five years in the overall population. 1 Reporting in 1999, the Antiarrhythmics Versus Implantable Defibrillators (AVID) trial consisted of 1,016 patients, and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-on_self-test

    Power-on self-test. A power-on self-test ( POST) is a process performed by firmware or software routines immediately after a computer or other digital electronic device is powered on. [ 1] POST processes may set the initial state of the device from firmware and detect if any hardware components are non-functional.

  7. Residual-current device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual-current_device

    A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through a conductor is not equal and opposite in both directions, therefore indicating leakage current to ground or current flowing to another powered conductor.

  8. Static synchronous compensator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_synchronous_compensator

    In Electrical Engineering , a static synchronous compensator ( STATCOM) is a shunt-connected, reactive compensation device used on transmission networks. It uses power electronics to form a voltage-source converter that can act as either a source or sink of reactive AC power to an electricity network. It is a member of the FACTS family of devices.

    It is intended primarily to save cost in low-bandwidth human interface devices (HID) such as keyboards, mice, and joysticks. Full speed (FS) rate of 12 Mbit/s is the basic USB signaling rate defined by USB 1.0. All USB hubs can operate at this rate. High speed (HS) rate of 480 Mbit/s was introduced in 2001 by USB 2.0.
