Dscs

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 ... Not all vendors have adopted the term DSC ...

Defense Satellite Communications System - Background
... DSCS went though three major phases - IDCSP (Interim Defense Communication Satellite Program), DSCS- II, and DSCS-III ... Since the first launch, DSCS has been the "workhorse" of military satellite communications ... All DSCS III satellites have exceeded their 10-year design life ...

Defense Satellite Communications System
... The Defense Satellite Communications System (DSCS) provides the United States with military communications to support globally distributed military users ... DSCS will be replaced by the Wideband Global SATCOM system ... A total of 14 DSCS III satellites were launched between the early 1980s and 2003 ...

Dye-sensitized Solar Cells - Photocathodes and Tandem Cells
... Dye sensitised solar cells operate as a photoanode (n-DSC), where photocurrent result from electron injection by the sensitized dye ... Photocathodes (p-DSCs) operate in an inverse mode compared to the conventional n-DSC, where dye-excitation is followed by rapid electron transfer from a p-type ... Such p-DSCs and n-DSCs can be combined to construct tandem solar cells (pn-DSCs) and the theoretical efficiency of tandem DSCs is well beyond that of single-j ...

Defense Satellite Communications System - DSCS II
... DSCS II provided secure voice and data communications for the U.S ... The first DSCS II launch was in 1971 ...
