A slice of semiconductor material upon which monolithic ICs are produced [14].
WAFER SWITCH
A rotary switch in which the contacts are arranged on levels. Each level (wafer) is electrically independent but mechanically connected by the shaft of the switch [3].
WATT
The unit of electrical power that is the product of voltage and current [16].
WATTAGE RATING
A rating expressing the maximum power that a device can safely handle [1].
WATT-HOUR
A practical unit of electrical energy equal to one watt of power for one hour [1].
WATT-HOUR METER
A meter used to measure electrical energy [3].
WATTMETER
A meter used to measure electrical power [3] [16].
WAVE ANTENNA
Same as BEVERAGE ANTENNA [10].
WAVEFORM
The shape of the wave obtained when instantaneous values of an ac quantity are plotted against time in rectangular coordinates [2].
WAVEFORM ANALYSIS
Observation displays of voltage and current variations with respect to time or by harmonic analysis of complex signals [16].
