Brit.

/ˈmʌɪkrə(ʊ)drʌɪv/, U.S.

/ˈmaɪkroʊˌdraɪv/,

/ˈmaɪkrəˌdraɪv/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: micro- comb. form, drive n.

Etymology: < micro- comb. form + drive n. In sense 1 probably originally short for micrometer drive (see quot. 1956 at sense 1).

1. Biology. Any of various devices for the accurate placement of microelectrodes in the brain.

1955 Amer. Jrnl. Physiol. 183 607/2 Variable positioning of the electrodes was accomplished by carrying them in a small microdrive.

1956 Science 27 July 179/2 A small micrometer drive for controlling the depth of insertion of the electrode is directly mounted on the glass window, which is movable. Thus the electrode, which is mounted in the shaft of the microdrive, may be located over any desired point on the exposed cortex..by sliding the window.

1979 Electroencephalogr. & Clin. Neurophysiol. 47 752/1 The present report introduces the design for a subminiature microdrive..which offers precision and stability of electrode placements in the brain of freely-moving rats.

1991 Proc. National Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 88 3426/2 A lightweight..microdrive, which housed a tungsten electrode, was cemented to the skull with the owl under ketamine anesthesia.

2. Computing. A miniature tape drive used as a peripheral storage device in some microcomputers. Now rare or historical.
