Open-circuit-output H-type Symbol
⎏ is the Open-Circuit Output H-Type symbol used in technical and computer contexts.
U+238F
⎏ is a technical symbol associated with an open-circuit output H-type representation. It’s typically used in diagramming and documentation where a specific circuit/output notation is needed. You can copy it directly or use its HTML/CSS/JavaScript escapes.
Open-circuit-output H-type Symbol Symbol Meaning
The symbol “⎏” is named the “OPEN-CIRCUIT-OUTPUT H-TYPE SYMBOL” (Unicode U+238F). As a technical notation, it represents an open-circuit output in an H-type context, which is commonly relevant when drawing or labeling circuit behavior and signal paths in documentation. Because it is standardized in Unicode, it’s useful for maintaining consistent typography across platforms—especially when you need a specific symbol rather than a textual approximation. In practice, it’s most often used in engineering-style diagrams, UI/UX labels for technical components, and software-rendered documentation where exact characters matter.
Common uses
- •Labeling an open-circuit output state in circuit diagrams
- •Annotating H-type output configurations in technical documentation
- •Rendering technical symbols in software-generated documentation
- •Including the correct Unicode character in design mockups for engineering UI
- •Using the symbol in educational or reference materials for circuitry notation
Examples
