Electrical circuits are constructed with of a variety of electronic devices including resistors, capacitors, switches, voltage sources, and more. An electrical circuit consists of a network that loops, allowing for passage of electrical current.
Electronic circuit - An electronic circuit is an electrical circuit that is constructed with active electronic components including transistors and diodes. Transistors used to be far too large to use in a small circuit but are now much more practical in both size and function. There are many types of electronic circuits that are used in a variety of devices.
Printed Circuit Board - PCBs are a very rudimentary circuit but are extremely inexpensive and also reliable .Also referred to as printed wiring board or etched wiring board, the PCB supports and connects electronic components on a circuit by etching pathways into the board. When all electronic components are connected, the result is a Printed Circuit Assembly (PCA).
Integrated Circuit - Integrated circuits, ICs, are the likely the most important invention in our time. Microprocessors which are used in computers and cell phones are a type of integrated circuit. ICs grow smaller and smaller but are packed with more and more circuitry. They are used in everything from communication, manufacturing, computing, and transportation. Even the internet is possible because of integrated circuits.
Digital Circuit - Digital circuits, as opposed to analog circuits, are preferable because they can easily be used with computers and software. Digital circuits make it very easy to store and retrieve data without degradation of the data. Analog circuits create too much noise and therefore cannot recover or store data as well as digital circuits.
Series and Parallel Circuits - Series and parallel are the two basic ways for wiring electronic components on a circuit. Series is when components are lined up one after another, while parallel refers to placing components next to each other. A series circuit has one path for the current flow, while a parallel circuit has more than one path in order to reach all the elements.
Telecommunication Circuit - A telecommunication circuit is any circuit on which information is transmitted. Telecommunication circuits can provide one-way or two-way communication, multiple channels.
