Full audio commentary |
| This CD assumes no prior knowledge of electronics and makes full use of animations, sound, graphics and images to take users from first principles (what is a resistor?, what does it look like?, how does it behave?) up to simple circuits. The CD makes use of many Virtual Laboratories: small software applications designed to help students learn electronic theory and overcome conceptual difficulties. |
| By the time students have worked through the CD ROM they will feel confident with a range of simple circuits from simple potential dividers through to simple power supplies. The Parts Gallery is supplied free with Electronic Circuits & Components. There are 5 chapters in Electronic Circuits and Components which break down as follows: |
| Units and Multiples: |
Fundamental and derived units, radians and sinusoids, decibels |
| Electricity: |
Ohm's Law, energy, magnetism, capacitance, resistance ,inductance, electric and magnetic fields |
| Electric Circuits: |
Series and parallel connections |
| Alternating Currents: |
wave forms, frequency, peak and RMS values, reactance and impedance |
| Resistors: |
values, colour code, series and parallel connection, temperature coefficient |
| Capacitors: |
charge and voltage, energy storage, specification, values, markings, series and parallel connection |
| Inductors: |
flux linkage and current, energy storage, specification, values, markings, series and parallel connection |
| Transformers: |
operation, voltage and turns ratio, current and turns ratio |
| Switches: |
