The document describes various electronic components and their functions. It discusses resistors which resist current flow, capacitors which can store electric charge, and diodes which allow current to flow in one direction. It also mentions transistors which amplify or switch signals, inductors which store energy in magnetic fields, integrated circuits which can function as various components, and microcontrollers which govern operations in embedded systems. The document provides brief descriptions of transformers, batteries, switches, relays, rectifiers, antennas, microphones, and fuses along with their functions in electronic circuits.

1. ELECTRONIC
COMPONENTS
AND THEIR FUNCTIONS

2. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
A resistor is one of
the components you
will come across in an
integrated circuit.
Like the name
suggests, the device
resists the flow of
current.
RESISTOR

3. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Capacitors are
components can store
electric charge
temporarily. It come in
different varieties, with
the most common ones
being electrolytic and
ceramic disk
CAPACITOR

4. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Diodes allow electric
current to flow in a
single direction only. It
has two terminals
known as the anode (+)
and cathode (-).
DIODE

5. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Transistors is a
semiconductor device
used to amplify or
switch electronic signals
and electrical power.
TRANSISTOR

6. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Inductors are passive
components that
store energy in form
of a magnetic field.
INDUCTOR

7. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
An integrated circuit
is small chip that can
function as an
amplifier, oscillator,
timer, microprocessor,
or even computer
memory.
INTEGRATED CIRCUIT

8. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Microcontroller is a
compact integrated
circuit designed to
govern a specific
operation in an
embedded system.
MICROCONTROLLER

9. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Transformer is a device
that is used to either
raise or lower voltages
and currents in an
electrical circuit.
TRANSFORMER

10. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Batteries convert
chemical energy to
electrical energy. The
two different cells of a
battery are anode (+)
and cathode (-).
BATTERY

11. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Diodes allow an
electric current to pass
in one direction (called
the diode's forward
direction), while
blocking it in the
opposite direction (the
reverse direction)
DIODE

12. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Switches are
components that can
pass current ("closed")
or break the current
("open")
SWITCH

13. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Relays are switches that
open and close circuits
electromechanically or
electronically. It controls
one electrical circuit by
opening and closing
contacts in another
circuit
RELAY

14. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Rectifier is an electrical
device that converts
alternating current (AC),
which periodically
reverses direction, to
direct current (DC), which
flows in only one
direction
RECTIFIER

15. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Antenna is a transducer
that converts radio
frequency (RF) fields into
alternating current or
vice versa
ANTENNA

16. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Microphone is a device
that translates sound
vibrations in the air
into electronic signals or
scribes them to a
recording medium.
MICROPHONE

17. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS
Fuses help preserve
components from
overloading with
excessive current. It
consists of connection
body, support, contacts,
and metal-fuse material
such as zinc or copper.
