  2. Proprotein convertase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proprotein_convertase

    Proprotein convertases (PPCs) are a family of proteins that activate other proteins. Many proteins are inactive when they are first synthesized, because they contain chains of amino acids that block their activity. Proprotein convertases remove those chains and activate the protein. The prototypical proprotein convertase is furin. [ 1]

  5. Buck–boost converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buck–boost_converter

    The switch is typically a MOSFET, IGBT, or BJT. The buck–boost converter is a type of DC-to-DC converter that has an output voltage magnitude that is either greater than or less than the input voltage magnitude. It is equivalent to a flyback converter using a single inductor instead of a transformer. [1] Two different topologies are called ...

  6. Boost converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boost_converter

    A boost converter or step-up converter is a DC-to-DC converter that increases voltage, while decreasing current, from its input ( supply) to its output ( load ). It is a class of switched-mode power supply (SMPS) containing at least two semiconductors, a diode and a transistor, and at least one energy storage element: a capacitor, inductor, or ...

  9. Block upconverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_upconverter

    Techniques. v. t. e. A block upconverter ( BUC) is used in the transmission ( uplink) of satellite signals. It converts a band of frequencies from a lower frequency to a higher frequency. Modern BUCs convert from the L band to K u band, C band and K a band. Older BUCs convert from a 70 MHz intermediate frequency (IF) to K u band or C band.
