... electronics) A grid bias provided automatically by the resistor in the cathode or grid circuit of an electron tube; the resulting voltage drop across the resistor serves as the grid bias. Also known as automatic C bias; automatic grid bias.

bias. A voltage, current, or other input applied to a device or system as a reference or to set its conditions of operation. A bias is usually steady but may vary with time, usually within a fixed and known range and with a fixed and known frequency. In electronics, the most common forms of bias are the voltage applied to the grid of an electron tube ...

... error. Many types of bias have been named, but three general types can be identified, selection bias, information bias and confounding. Selection bias is a systematic error in a study caused by the individuals selected into the study being different from the entire target population in an important way. See also berkson's bias. Information bias is a ...
- reverse bias by Kennedy Stanley
... electronics) A bias voltage applied to a diode or a semiconductor junction with polarity such that little or no current flows; the opposite of forward bias.

... the gate, it is added to the bias, causing the resultant voltage to be higher or lower, based on the design criteria. Forward and Reverse BiasForward bias (same direction as control voltage) brings the device into or closer to the conductive state of the device. Reverse bias (opposite direction) holds the device in a non-conductive state until the control ...
