4 letter words starting with scan
- scan — to glance at or over or read hastily: to scan a page.
- scan design — (electronics) (Or "Scan-In, Scan-Out") A electronic circuit design technique which aims to increase the controllability and observability of a digital logic circuit by incorporating special "scan registers" into the circuit so that they form a scan path. Some of the more common types of scan design include the multiplexed register designs and level-sensitive scan design (LSSD) used extensively by IBM. Boundary scan can be used alone or in combination with either of the above techniques.
- scan line — (hardware) A horizontal line of pixels generated by a single horizontal sweep of the beam from a monitor's electron gun. The number of scanlines that make up a frame is the vertical resolution.
- scan path — (circuit design) A technique used to increase the controllability and observability of a logic circuit by incorporating "scan registers" into the circuit. Normally these act like flip-flops but they can be switched into a "test" mode where they all become one long shift register. This allows data to be clocked serially through all the scan registers and out of an output pin at the same time as new data is clocked in from an input pin. Using this technique, the state of certain points in the circuit can be examined and modified at any time by suspending normal operation and switching to test mode. If the scan path is placed adjacent to the circuit's input and output pins then this is known as "boundary scan".
- scan register — (electronics, testing) A digital logic circuit which can act either as a flip-flop or as a serial shift register and which is used to form a scan path for testing. The most common design is a multiplexed flip-flop: The other common design is level-sensitive scan design (LSSD).

- scanf — The C library routine that reads data from the standard input stream stdin into the locations given by each entry in its argument list. The first argument is a format string which controls interpretation of the input and each subsequent argument points to a variable with a type that corresponds to a type specifier in the format-string.
- scant — barely sufficient in amount or quantity; not abundant; almost inadequate: to do scant justice.

- scan-edf — (storage, algorithm) A variation of the Scan disk aceess algorithm for use in a real-time environment where, in general, requests are served according to Earliest Deadline First. If two requests share the same deadline, they may be reorganised according to Scan. A typical example is a video server that retrieves video data from a hard disk. The playback of a video impose tight real-time constraints but if the server retrieves data once every second for each video channel, Scan-EDF can be applied, reducing the seek overhead.
- scandent — climbing, as a plant.
- scandian — of or relating to Scandia.
- scandisk — (operating system, storage) An MS-DOS command to check for faults on a disk and provide a graphical representation the results. Scandisk was introduced with MS-DOS version 6 to replace CHKDSK.
- scandium — a rare, trivalent, metallic element obtained from thortveitite. Symbol: Sc; atomic weight: 44.956; atomic number: 21; specific gravity: 3.0.
