Reading Time: 16 minutesWhat is a Transistor? A transistor is a semiconductor device that serves as a fundamental building block in modern electronics. It is primarily used to amplify or switch electrical signals and power. Transistors are composed of semiconductor materials of either P-type or N-type, where these materials are sandwiched together to form P-N junctions. These junctions […]
Reading Time: 13 minutesHave you ever wondered how electricity goes into your electronic device, swirls around in there, and does something useful? Maybe you’ve thought to yourself, can I control that electricity? If so, how? First, let me tell you, that those questions are excellent, and to help guide you into how electricity is controlled — or to […]
Reading Time: 19 minutesIntroduction Kirchhoff’s second law deals with the conservation of energy around a closed loop series path. We call this law Kirchhoff’s Voltage Law, or KVL, for short. What’s a Closed Loop Series Path? A closed loop series path is where there is a direct path through circuit elements from one point of the circuit around […]
Reading Time: 13 minutesCircuit Element A circuit element refers to a basic component that is used to construct electrical circuits. The element can be a physical device or an abstract concept that exhibits specific electrical behavior and are combined together to form more complex circuits. These elements can include resistors, capacitors, inductors, and various other components that contribute […]
