penultimate word; "circuit's" not "circuits"

 

555 Schmitt Trigger

I assume you are talking this paragraph;

The 5KΩ resistors are not very accurate. It is interesting to note that IC fabrication doesn't generally allow precision resistors, but the resistors compared to each other are extremely close in value, which is critical to the circuits operation.

Valid.

I plan on resubmitting that article, somehow an old version was used incorrectly (my fault). I'll update my master copy.

That's a good example of the correct use of the word "penultimate;" often, it is misused to mean "the best," or "at the top."

Is there a word which means "Third from the last"?

I guess the main thing is that Bill Marsden has this change, since he will update the article.

I have also entered the change at ibiblio
