  2. Differential scanning calorimetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_scanning...

    Dielectric thermal analysis. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is a thermoanalytical technique in which the difference in the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of a sample and reference is measured as a function of temperature. [1] Both the sample and reference are maintained at nearly the same temperature throughout the ...

  3. Digital selective calling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Selective_Calling

    A Sailor VHF DSC unit. Digital selective calling (DSC) is a standard for transmitting predefined digital messages via the medium-frequency (MF), high-frequency (HF) and very-high-frequency (VHF) maritime radio systems. It is a core part of the Global Maritime Distress Safety System (GMDSS). [1]

    Dye-sensitized solar cell. A selection of dye-sensitized solar cells. A dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC, DSC, DYSC[1] or Grätzel cell) is a low-cost solar cell belonging to the group of thin film solar cells. [2] It is based on a semiconductor formed between a photo-sensitized anode and an electrolyte, a photoelectrochemical system.

  8. Maritime Mobile Service Identity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maritime_Mobile_Service...

    Acronym. MMSI. A Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) is effectively a maritime object's international maritime telephone number, a temporarily assigned UID issued by that object's current flag state (unlike an IMO number, which is a permanent global UID). An MMSI comprises a series of nine digits, consisting of three Maritime Identification ...

  9. Digital signal controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_signal_controller

    A digital signal controller (DSC) is a hybrid of microcontrollers and digital signal processors (DSPs). Like microcontrollers, DSCs have fast interrupt responses, offer control-oriented peripherals like PWMs and watchdog timers, and are usually programmed using the C programming language, although they can be programmed using the device's native assembly language.
