Definitions

gyratornoun
A mechanical device that imparts or maintains rotational motion.
The engineer used a gyrator to study the rotational dynamics of the system.
An electronic two-port network that inverts impedance, enabling inductive behaviour to be emulated with capacitors and active components.
In the circuit design, a gyrator replaced the bulky inductor with a compact active network.
gyratoradjective
Relating to or involving a gyrator or gyrators.
The gyrator filter allowed the compact radio to achieve the desired bandwidth.
