1. Importantly, these solutions are intended to support one user per discrete device . 2. Discrete devices are widely used in applications such as mixers to convert frequencies.3. VCRs manufactured in this way can be obtained as discrete devices , e . g. 4. More recently, the symbol is often drawn without its circle even for discrete devices . 5. Pull-up resistors may be discrete devices mounted on the same circuit board as the logic devices. 6. Root complex functionality may be implemented as a discrete device , or may be integrated with the processor. 7. Power semiconductor devices are discrete devices or integrated circuits intended for high current or high voltage applications. 8. Once grown, the wafer is fabricated into discrete devices using a multi-step photolithography process consisting of etching and metallization steps. 9. Officially, the style of the symbol should show the component inside a circle ( representing the envelope of a discrete device ). 10. The thermal bump can be integrated as a part of the standard flip-chip process ( Figure 1 ) or integrated as discrete devices .
