A component switch is used with electronics and wiring. You can wire electronics to turn on using a switch with multiple linked to one. A component switch is the overall central one that they all link to and function off of.
A component switch also known as a matrix switch enables users to switch between multiple video inputs to multiple LCD's, TV's or projectors with compatible outputs.
Triac.
The solid state component that can be used as a switch to turn current on or off is a thyristor.
A component video switch would most commonly be used in domestic situations connected to a television. It allows multiple devices to be connected via component cables to a televisions which normally only have one set of input sockets. The user can then change the input to the television with a flick of a switch rather than time consuming unplugging and plugging in of different cables and sockets.
i know that an op amp can be used as an amplifier and a switch, but i want to have more uses of the component or device.
Component video switches are available at most major electronics retailers, including Best Buy, Fry's Electronics, or Radio Shack. You can also obtain one used from Amazon or eBay.
That will depend on the setting of the meter switch and the circuit connected to the component (if there is one).
Metals are used in most switch gear because they are good condectors of electricity and are durable. Carbon would also works well and is less likely to fuse together but it less ductile and more likely to fail because of fategue.

Check your cable. If you are using a universal component cable, and the switch on the cable is set to video, you will get only black and white on the Wii. Flip the switch to component and your problem may vanish - mine did.
Transistor or vacuum tube.
Negative pressure switch
