Series Circuit, The current is the same everywhere in the circuit., Parallel Circuit, - an electrical path that branches so that the current divides and only part of it flows through any branch., Open Circuit, - an electric circuit which current does not flow. If there’s a break anywhere in the circuit, you have an open circuit, and current can not flow., Short Circuit, - is an electrical circuit that allows a current to travel along an unintended path with no or very low electrical impedance (resistance)., Inductor, passive electrical coil element that stores energy in the form of a magnetic field, transistor, - a semiconductor device with three connections, capable of amplification, switching, and rectification., Electro Motive Force, - volts or potential difference. Ohms Law ([]= I * R), current, - is a flow of charged (electrons) particles. Ohms Law ([Amps]= V/R) Ohms Law = I * R, resistance, Ohms Law ([ohms] = V / I), LED, Light emitting diode, diode, - an electrical component that allows the flow of current in only one direction, Capacitor, - a device that stores electrical energy in an electric field by accumulating electric charges on two close surfaces insulated from each other, Switch, - a device that electrically turns circuits ON or OFF and is manual or automatic., variable resistor, - also called a potentiometer and used as a voltage divider, DC motor, - a direct current device that transforms electrical energy into mechanical energy by creating a magnetic field that rotates a stator., Servo Motor, - a rotary actuator or linear actuator that allows for precise control of angular or linear position, velocity, and acceleration. It consists of a motor coupled to a sensor for position beedback and a gear box., Stepper motor, a brushless DC electric device that divides a full rotation into a number of equal steps; It does not rotate continuously, but is known for its property of converting a train of input pulses into a precisely defined increment in the shaft’s rotational position. Each pulse rotates the shaft through a fixed angle., AC, alternating (sinusoidal) voltage and current, DC, Direct current, 7- Seg Display, - an electronic device that contains an array of 8 individual LEDs. The display can display 0-9., Fuse, - an electrical safety device that operates to provide overcurrent protection of an electrical circuit. Its essential component is a metal wire or strip that melts when too much current flows through it,, Circuit breaker, - a switching device that can be operated manually or automatically for controlling and protecting an electrical power system., Relay, - typically incorporating an electromagnet, which is activated by a current or signal in one circuit to open or close another higher powered, isolated circuit., IC, an electronic circuit formed on a small piece of semiconducting material, performing the same function as a larger circuit made from discrete components, aka Integrated circuit, What value of this resistor having the color code brown,black,red ? , 1K (1,000) ohms , What value of this resistor having the color code orange,orange,orange??, 33K(33,000) ohms, For a similar series circuit, with 500 ohms, 500 ohms and 500 ohms resistors, what is the total resistance?, 1.5 K (1,500) ohms , For a similar parallel circuit, with 500 ohms, 500 ohms and 500 ohms resistors, what is the total resistance?, 166.67 ohms, Bread board, - a board for making an experimental model of an electric circuit., Solenoid, - is the kind of magnet where the wire is wrapped around an iron core. Upon the supply of electric current, a magnetic field is created around the iron core attracting nearby metal. This device can be used as a mechanical latch..
