AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the setup of RAM on a bus where one chip handles the lower nibble and another the upper nibble of data at the same address. The user questions whether this configuration qualifies as interleaving, expressing uncertainty about the accuracy of the term in this context. Interleaving typically refers to distributing data across multiple memory locations or chips to enhance performance, which may not align with the described setup. The user seeks clarification on the terminology and its application in their specific RAM configuration. Ultimately, the distinction between interleaving and the current setup remains a point of contention.

I've set up RAM on a bus such that one chip takes the lower nibble and another chip takes the upper nibble of a particular data value at a specific address. Both chips are given the same address, but each one contains only half of the data. I want to call this interleaving, but I'm not sure if this term is entirely accurate. Is this interleaving?

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

Thread 'Following up on the recent thread about Earth Resistance measurements'

I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...

Thread 'Question about bonding ground and neutral'

I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
