content: I never had any formal study in electronics, but self taught I know many jargon of the field. But sometimes and today I found myself struggling to find words to English terms in Portuguese. Don't get me wrong I know what they mean and to translate then but often the translation does not relate to what term used by academics. So if someone is familiar could clear out some things for me.Parece esquisito manei preciso de um brasileiro pra mim ensinar português pra outro brasileiro, um glossário em português.Relay - essa é facil, a tradução seria como retransmissor, mas o termo usado é relé.Heatsink - dissipador de calorBus - o termo seria Barramento, e não ônibus.AC coupled/couplingDC biasReversed biasOpto-couplerGround plane - Plano terra?Pin header -Breadboard - quase certeza que nao chamam de Tabua de paoBypassSolder mask - mascara de solda, alguem fala isso?Clamping diodesPush-pullRising/falling edgeCommon modeChokeShield - blindagemSwitching supply - fonte chaveadaPwm - modulação por largura de pulse?Duty cycle - ciclo de trabalho?Tem mais que eu fico em dúvida mas foi essas que eu lembrei até agora

content: Duty cycle is very likely to beCiclo de trabalhoI speak spanish but all the terms in portuguese you have said are the same in spanishBreadboard is protoboard but for english speaking people protoboard is a pre-perforated circuit board (veroboard). In spanish we call those placa perforada or baquelita perforadaMiltimeter is often multímetro or téster

content: Quote from: ivan747 on October 17, 2014, 01:01:02 pmIn Argentina we call breadboards "protoboards". Perfboards are"placas experimentales" (at least that's what I always use/hear) and also "placas perforadas".Quote from: victor on October 15, 2014, 07:03:28 amhaha, there's a series of videos from Make Magazine called "Collin's Lab" where Collin explains some electronic stuff. You reminded me of this video, where he claims that it's called breadboard mainly because they were bread boards originally

content: Pretty cool the video you sent, Naahuel. My only problem is his drawing of a Multivibrador astável! I grew up with the drawing where the two middle interconnections crossed in a X shape. Something similar to what is shownhere.There used to be an author (Zuffo) that used to translate EVERY SINGLE TECHNICAL TERM, including the acronyms. You ended up with some strange terms such as ROM=MAL (Memória Apenas de Leitura), PROM=MALSR (Memória Apenas de Leitura com Simples Regravação) and so on. I am very glad this did not stick to the technical literature in Brazil.Over the years I saw some other interesting names with curious translations such as:Loop = Laço ou enlacePower Transformer = Transformador de Poder (livros das décadas de 50/60)Flip-flop = gangorra (livro obscuro de circuitos digitais da década de 70)Oscilloscope = Oscilógrafo de raios catódicos (livros das décadas de 40/50)Multimeter = MultitesteAnd there are probably others that escape my memory...

I've seen those in old books. I think it's mainly because the people who did the translating didn't know about the subject, so they translated many things literally.
