Basic Electronics

This tutorial covers transistor basics and conceptually answer a question how transistor works? Transistors are backbone of electronics. They are everywhere; in discrete form, in group of millions as integrated circuit. Lets explore them.

This article is about different types of capacitor. Any piece of electronic circuit, equipment have variety of capacitors inside it. When comes to selection of capacitor for electronics circuit design, we have many options. Let’s discuss about them.

This post is about working of capacitor in AC circuit. We will see how capacitor works with AC input, concept of capacitive reactance and ohms law for capacitor in AC circuit.

This post is about working of capacitor in DC circuit. We will see how capacitor works with DC input, capacitor charging or discharging and concept of time constant.

This post is about need, concept and working of capacitor. Capacitor is the second important member in the triad of passive electronic components.

In this post, we’ll learn about reverse current protection using diode. This is basic but significant application of diode.

This article is about different types of diodes. Depending on functionality, voltage and current ratings there are several types of diode. Let’s discuss them.

This post is about What is Diode? and Why we need Diode in Circuit. The diode controls direction of current flow in circuit. It is used for AC to DC conversion (rectification), in switching application.
