Termination
Personal Finance
A Reporting Status for an employee who is leaving a covered position that requires the filer to file an SF 278. This report is due within 30 days after leaving the covered position.
Storage
A feature that stops the data signal at the beginning and the end of the SCSI bus. The first and last devices on the SCSI bus must be terminated.
Telecommunications
The load connected to a transmission line, circuit, or device. Note: For a uniform transmission line, if the termination impedance is equal to the characteristic impedance of the line, wave reflections from the end of the line will be avoided. [From Weik '89] 2. In hollow metallic waveguides, the point at which energy propagating in the waveguide continues in a nonwaveguide propagation mode into a load. [From Weik '89] 3. An impedance, often resistive, that is connected to a transmission line or piece of equipment as a dummy load, for test purposes.
