This operation is done for a fixed period, then its inverse is done for a variable period in a dual-slope analog-to-digital converter. This operation names a neuronal model proposed by Louis Lapicque (“la-PEEK”) that makes no assumption about the shape of action potentials. This operation is the second term in the computation done by three-term control systems. Ideal op-amps that implement this operation have a transfer function of the negative reciprocal of RC times s, since this operation in the time domain is Laplace transformed into division in the s-domain. A capacitor performs this mathematical operation to the current, since the charge is equal to this operation with respect to time on the current. For 10 points, name this operation from calculus that gives the area under a curve. ■END■
ANSWER: integration (with respect to time) [or taking the integral with respect to time; or word forms like integrate or integrator; accept integrate-and-fire model; accept proportional–integral–derivative controller]
