INTRODUCTION TO ELECTRONICS: Series Circuits

A series circuit is one in which electric current ( I ) travels along a closed path that does not split apart: *** Note: Conventional current consists of positive charges that flow from the positively charged anode to the negatively charged cathode. In reality, negatively charged electrons flow in the opposite direction. *** The diagram,Continue reading “INTRODUCTION TO ELECTRONICS: Series Circuits”

INTRODUCTION TO ELECTRONICS: Direct Current ( DC ) Voltage, Current, and Resistance

An introductory discussion of electronics would be remiss without a conceptual analysis of DC voltage ( Vdc ), current ( I ), and resistance ( R ). Most students readily adapt to teaching strategies that relate new topics to familiar themes and everyday life experiences. Visual aids are of preeminent importance to new and seasonedContinue reading “INTRODUCTION TO ELECTRONICS: Direct Current ( DC ) Voltage, Current, and Resistance”
