Batteries

battery

Every electronic circuit, project or gadget like our mobile phone or the speakers that we use, require electrical power to function. We can draw this required electrical power from our mains outlet using a power supply. When we want mobility and freedom from wires, we have to use a portable powerhouse. These are DC power … Read more

LDR Light Dependent Resistors

light dependent resistor

A Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) is also called a photoresistor. The passive component is basically a resistor whose resistance value increases when the intensity of light decreases. The resistor behaves depending upon the amount of light falling on it. In general, LDR resistance is minimum (ideally zero) when it receives a maximum amount of light … Read more

What is Transistor and how to use in switching circuits

Transistors

Transistor is perhaps the most important of electronic components because of which all modern electronics works. Therefore It becomes not only important but also mandatory to know what is transistor and how transistor works. A transistor is a semiconductor device commonly used to amplify or switch electronic signals. It’s a Device with three terminals where … Read more

Speakers

What is speaker

Speakers come in all shapes and sizes, enabling you to listen to music on your mobile, tablet, laptop and home audio system, enjoy a film at the cinema or hear a friend’s voice over the phone. In order to translate an electrical signal into an audible sound, speakers contain a permanent magnet and an electromagnet, … Read more

Resistors

Resistor

Resistors are those tiny little electronics components which opposes the flow of electric current. Whenever we try to build a small circuit, if a resistor is added into that circuit, the job of resistor is to resist (or oppose) the current flow. The value of resistance offered by a resistor never changes. Resistors are passive … Read more
