An integrated circuit (IC), sometimes called a chip or microchip, is a semiconductor wafer on

which thousands or millions of tiny resistors, capacitors, and transistors are fabricated. An IC can
function as an amplifier, oscillator, timer, counter, computer memory, or microprocessor.
2. A diode is a semiconductor device that essentially acts as a one-way switch for current.
It allows current to flow easily in one direction, but severely restricts current from flowing
in the opposite direction.
3. An inductor, also called a coil, choke, or reactor, is a passive two-terminal electrical
component that stores energy in a magnetic field when electric current flows through it.
4. A transistor is a semiconductor device used to amplify or switch electronic signals and
electrical power. Transistors are one of the basic building blocks of modern electronics. It is
composed of semiconductor material usually with at least three terminals for connection to
an external circuit.
5. Switch is an electrical component which can make or break electrical circuit
automatically or manually. Switch is mainly works with ON (open) and OFF (closed)
mechanism.
6. A vacuum tube is a device that controls electric current flow in a high vacuum between
electrodes to which an electric potential difference has been applied.
7. A battery is a power source consisting of one or more electrochemical cells with external
connections for powering electrical devices such as flashlights, mobile phones, and electric
cars. When a battery is supplying electric power, its positive terminal is the cathode and its
negative terminal is the anode.
8. A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical
resistance as a circuit element. In electronic circuits, resistors are used to reduce current
flow, adjust signal levels, to divide voltages, bias active elements, and terminate
transmission lines, among other uses.
9. A transformer is a passive component that transfers electrical energy from one electrical
circuit to another circuit, or multiple circuits.
10. A capacitor (originally known as a condenser) is a passive  two-
terminal electrical component used to store energy electrostatically  in
an electric field. The forms of practical capacitors vary widely, but all
contain at least two electrical conductors  (plates) separated by
a dielectric (i.e., insulator ).
