Metal Oxide Varistor:
A Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV, or surge-suppressor) is a discrete electronic component that diverts excessive voltage to the ground and/or neutral lines.
Microcontroller:
A device which has CPU, ROM, RAM, I/O port and timer all embedded on single chip, some times its contain ADC, DAC and analogue comparator. It's also known as IBP ("itty-bitty processors").
Most significant bit. The highest order bit in the binary representation of a numerical value. see LSB
A device which has multiple inputs channels and single output channel, one input channel is connected to the output channel at the same time.
MOSFET:
