Building Curcuits From Schematics Basic Electrical components: - resistors - capacitors - Potentiometers - Capacitors - Diodes - LED’s (light emitting diodes)
Electronic Circuit is a collection of components that electricity is driven through to accomplish a task
wire has no resistance

Building Curcuits From Schematics breadboard is a
plastic matrix with holes
Power supply and ground
Leads of el. components are inserted into the holes
Bus strips holes are electrically connected in vertical direction (used for power distribution)
terminal strips holes are electrically connected in horizontal direction (5 holes series only)

Resistors Resistor – dissipative element that converts
electrical energy into heat. Ohm’s law V=IR Defined by voltage-current characteristics –
slop of the voltage-current curve:
Wire-lead resistor’s value and precision are coded with four colored bands
Bands: a – tens digit, b – ones digit, c- power of 10, tol – tolerance of uncertainty

Resistors/Potentiometer
Potentiometer or pot – variable resistor
Provide range of resistance values controlled by mechanical screw, knob or linear slide:

Capacitor Capacitor is a passive element that stores
energy in the form of an electric field (as a result of a separation electric charge)
Consists of conducted plates separated by dielectric material
Capacitance (C) units: farads
Dielectric material is an insulator that increases the capacitance as a result of permanent or induced electric dipoles in the material
![Page 10: Electric Curcuits and Measurements](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815d7d550346895dcb8966/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Capacitor Capacitors in parallel
C = C1+C2
Capacitors in series:
C = C1*C2/(C1+C2)

Diodes Diode is a pn-junction that passes current
in only one direction (or rectifier)
Analog to check valve

Diodes
Optoelectronic Diodes or Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) – emit photons
- positive lead (anode) is longer

Measurements
Multimeter (measurements in DC circuits)
Oscilloscope (measurements in AC/DC circuits
Function generator (power supply for generation of
voltage waveform)
![Page 14: Electric Curcuits and Measurements](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815d7d550346895dcb8966/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Measurements/Multimeters
Multimeter (measurements in DC circuits)
-Only measure resistance when power to the circuit is OFF ;
- during resistance or voltage measurements multimeter probes are place in parallel to the circuit;
- in current measurement the probes need to be placed in series (you need to disconnect the el. component)

Measurements/ OscilloscopeOscilloscope – voltage-measuring instrument, capable of recording high frequency signals (chapter 3.5.4, p. 10 of manual)
![Page 16: Electric Curcuits and Measurements](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815d7d550346895dcb8966/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Measurements/ OscilloscopeBasic concepts (see course web-page) Probe Self-calibration Triggering - determines proper acquirement of data - options (source, coupling etc.) Acquiring Data Scaling and Positioning Waveforms - vertical, horizontal - aliasing etc… Autoset Math functions Etc…

Measurements/ Oscilloscope/Triggering To ensure that a recording of the signal
from the transducer is made at a correct time (or synchronized) triggering is used
(see details in manual, p.10) Triggering synchronizes an oscilloscope
with the event (signal capturing)
Sources of trigger signals: - input channel (commonly used) - AC Line - External Input channel triggering: - uses input signal, activate internal
sawtooth generator and initiate synchronization;
- frequency of the generator is adjusted to the one of the input signal
- signal trace appears stationary on the screen

Measurements/ Oscilloscope/Triggering
Auto triggering: depends on time-base (controlled by SEC/DIV knob)
Time base (p.16, manual) – controls how often the values (of a signal) are digitized
![Page 19: Electric Curcuits and Measurements](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815d7d550346895dcb8966/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Measurements/ Oscilloscope/Scaling and positioning waveforms
You can change size, scale and position of the wave form on the display (vertically and horizontally, using SEC/DIV knob)
Aliasing – occurs when the oscilloscope does not sample signal fast enough (check it using SEC/DIV knob)
