Disk On Module, a 44-pin IDE flash drive with up to 128MB storage capacity for
instrument‟s firmware, configuration settings and data
Dynamic Random Access Memory
Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory also referred to as a FLASH chip
or drive
a standardized (IEEE 802.3) computer networking technology for local area networks
(LANs), facilitating communication and sharing resources
Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene polymer, one of the polymers that Du Pont markets as
Teflon
®
non-volatile, solid-state memory
Fabry-Perot Interface: a special light filter typically made of a transparent plate with two
reflecting surfaces or two parallel, highly reflective mirrors
a clocked, bi-directional, serial bus for communication between individual instrument
components
Integrated Circuit, a modern, semi-conductor circuit that can contain many basic
components such as resistors, transistors, capacitors etc in a miniaturized package used
in electronic assemblies
the mass, expressed in grams, of 1 mole of a specific substance. Conversely, one mole is
the amount of the substance needed for the molar mass to be the same number in grams
as the atomic mass of that substance.
EXAMPLE: The atomic weight of Carbon is 12 therefore the molar mass of Carbon is 12
grams. Conversely, one mole of carbon equals the amount of carbon atoms that weighs
12 grams.
Atomic weights can be found on any Periodic Table of Elements.
