This is a fun and educational mini project for students and hobbyists interested in basic electronics. Concepts Covered: Transistor Switching […]
You have seen various types of electronic components they may be divided into two active and passive. Here is the definition of passive electronic components and their classification. Definition of Passive Components: “The devices which cannot control the flow of electrons by any other electrical signal are called passive components.” Resistors, capacitors, inductors, etc are […]
Electronic components are the building blocks of electronic circuits and systems. There are various types of Electronic Components, each serving a unique function in the operation of electronic devices. They are broadly classified into two groups active components and passive components. “Electronics components are any basic discrete device or physical entity present in an electronic system […]
Definition of Active components: “Active components are those who has the ability to control flow of electrons either by using voltage or by using another current.” Voltage-controlled devices are MOSFETs, vacuum tubes, while current-controlled devices are bipolar junction transistors which allow one current to control another. Active components can be of different types like semiconductor […]
You can see Shockley diode symbol it is a four-layer (P-N-P-N) semiconductor device. Like pn junction diode It conducts in forward bias and stops conducting in reverse bias. The main difference between a conventional diode and a Shockley diode is, it starts conducting when the forward voltage crosses its breakdown voltage. It is an active component. It […]
