T-network singular
T-networks plural

Morphology

T-network = T + network (transparent) = T + network

Clearly formed from 'T' + 'network' to indicate a network shaped like the letter T, so meaning follows directly from the parts.

Etymology

T-network names an electronic circuit that looks like the letter T. The T shows the shape and network means 'connected parts', so the name tells you the circuit's parts join in a 'T' shape.
