However‚ manufacturers’ desire for higher and higher densities and smaller drives has led to the use of platters made of glass (or‚ more technically‚ a glass-ceramic composite). One such material‚ produced by the Dow Corning Corporation‚ is called MemCor. MemCor is composed of glass with ceramic implants‚ enabling it to resist cracking better than pure glass. Glass

I. Introduction a. Back ground of the Study Triac The TRIAC is a three terminal semiconductor device for controlling current. It gains its name from the term TRIode for AlternatingCurrent. It is effectively a development of the SCR or thyristor‚ but unlike the thyristor which is only able to conduct in one direction‚ the TRIAC is a bidirectional device. TRIAC The TRIAC is an ideal device to use for AC switching applications because it can control the current flow over both halves of
