  • Method and system for adjusting replacement component characteristics
    Patent number: 5706215
    Abstract: A method and system for adjusting the gain of an output from a replacement component in a system with plural components responsive to changing operating conditions so that a power level of an output from the system is approximately the same as a power level of an output from the system before installation of the replacement component. A system memory stores a relationship of gain responsive to changing operating conditions for each of plural components in the system, and each replacement component has a component memory for storing a relationship of gain responsive to changing operating conditions. The relationship stored in the component memory is copied to the system memory when the replacement component is installed in the system.
