Electronics Frequently asked Questions:
1. Define electronic component. Electronic components are the basic building blocks of electronic system or electronic circuit. 2. List different types of electronic components Electronic components are mainly classified into two types: Passive components Active components 3. Define passive component. A passive component is an electronic component that consumes energy in the form of voltage but does not supply energy. 4. What are the characteristics of passive components? Passive components cannot increase the power of an electrical signal. Passive components temporarily store the electrical energy in the form of electric field or magnetic field. Passive components do not depend on the external source of voltage to perform a specific task. 5. What are the characteristics of active components? Active components control the electric current flowing through them. Active components depend on the external voltage or current to work. Active components amplify the power of an electrical signal. 6. Define active component. Active component is an electronic component that consumes energy in the form of voltage or current and supplies energy in the form of voltage or current. 7. List different types of passive components The different types of passive components include: Resistors Capacitors Inductors 8. List different types of active components The different types of active components include: Diode Transistor Integrated circuit 9. Define resistor. Resistor is a passive component that restricts the flow of electric current. Types of Resistors: Carbon Composition Resistors, MELF Resistors, Resistor Networks & Arrays, Ceramic Composition Resistors, Metal Foil Resistors, SMD Resistors / Chip Resistors, Chassis Mount Resistors, Metal Oxide Resistors, Through Hole Resistors, Current Sense Resistors, Variable Resistors, Film Resistors, Resistor Kits, Wirewound Resistors, High Frequency/RF Resistors 10. Define capacitor. Capacitor is an electronic component that stores electrical energy in the form of static electric field. 11. Define inductor. Inductor is an electronic component that stores electrical energy in the form of magnetic field. 12. Define diode. A diode is a two terminal device that allows electric current in one direction and blocks electric current in another direction. 13. Diode allows electric current when it is Forward biased 14. Diode blocks electric current when it is Reverse biased 15. Define transistor. Transistor is an electronic component that amplifies electrical signals. 16. Who invented transistor. Transistor was invented by three scientists named Walter Brattain, J. Bardeen and William Shockley. 17. Which types of materials are used to construct transistors? Silicon and germanium materials are most commonly used to construct transistors. 18. Define integrated circuit (IC) An integrated circuit (IC) is a small semiconductor chip on which millions of electronic components such as resistors, capacitors and transistors are fabricated. 19. Who invented integrated circuit? Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce invented integrated circuit.
