Modulaatorilt

Modulaatorilt is an Estonian term that means “from the modulator.” It is formed from the noun modulaator (modulator) plus the elative case suffix -ilt, which marks origin or starting point. In technical writing, modulaatorilt is used to indicate the source of a signal or data in a system or diagram.

In Estonian, the elative suffix -ilt is commonly used to express origin, direction, or source. When attached to modulaator, modulaatorilt specifies that a particular signal or control originates at the modulator. In schematics and technical descriptions, phrases such as modulaatorilt tulev signaal (signal coming from the modulator) help readers trace signal flow and determine responsibilities within a circuit or process.

Common contexts for modulaatorilt appear in electronics, telecommunications, radio engineering, audio processing, and broadcasting. It is found in manuals, datasheets, and educational texts that describe signal chains or system architecture, where clear attribution of a signal’s origin aids understanding and troubleshooting. The term is typically used in Estonian-language materials and may be translated loosely as “originating from the modulator.”

Example: Modulaatorilt tulev signaal tuleb jaotada enne demodulatsiooni. Translation: The signal originating from the modulator must be split before demodulation.
