2. ELECTRONICS
Electronics: Electronics is that branch of science
and technology which makes use of the controlled
motion of electrons through different media and
vacum. The ability to control electron flow is usually
applied to information handling or device control.
6. ACTIVE COMPONENTS
Active Component: The electronics components
which are capable of amplifying or processing an
electrical signal are called as active component.
Examples –
1. TRANSISTORS.
2. LOGIC GATES.
7. TRANSISTORS
Transistor: A transistor is a device that regulates
current or voltage flow and acts as a switch or gate
for electronic signals. Transistors consist of three
layers of a semiconductor material, each capable of
carrying a current.
8. LOGIC GATES
Logic Gates: A logic gate is an elementary building
block of a digital circuit. Most logic gates have two
inputs and one output.
9. PASSIVE COMPONENTS
Passive Component: The electronics components
which are not capable of amplifying or processing
an electrical signal are called as passive component.
EXAMPLES –
1. Resistor.
2. Capacitor.
3. Inductor.
10. RESISTOR
Resistor: A resistor is an electrical component that
limits or regulates the flow of electrical current in an
electronic circuit.
