Newer cellphones contain a removable memory card, which is often called a
SIM card
Made from a variety of materials, such as carbon, this inhibits the flow of current.
Resistor
This is the type of semiconductor that only allows current to flow in one direction. It is usually used to rectify AC signals (conversion to DD).
Diode
Radar can operate at frequencies As high as
100,000 MHz (megahertz)
What do AC and D.C. Stand for in the electrical field?
Alternating Current and Direct Current
Changing AC to DC Is called what?
Rectification
