Overview

A unique feature of the eagle-i software is that the data collection and search tools are completely driven by ontologies. These ontologies are a set of modules that are written in the OWL language and edited and managed using Protégé.

...

The guides and instructions in the pages below will help you understand the ontology structure, configure Protégé, edit the ontology, and add annotations to drive the user interfaces.

Term requestExample
A name/label for the proposed termFour-terminal resistance sensor
A textual definition (with source) for the proposed term
"Four-terminal resistance sensors are electrical impedance measuring instruments that use separate pairs of current-carrying and voltage-sensing electrodes to make accurate measurements that can be used to compute a material's electrical resistance." Taken from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-terminal_sensing
An example of usage for the proposed term Measuring the inherent (per square) resistance of doped silicon.
