INTRODUCTION TO BASIC ELECTRONICS

A Complete Beginners Guide To Learning Electronics

It Begins With These Two Books, But Take A Look At What's Inside

THE FIRST BOOK CONTAINS 9 CHAPTERS OF THE MOST IMPORTANT BASIC INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW.

In chapter 1 we talk about the things that must be present in any circuit to make it operate. We'll talk about voltage and current flow and show an example of a static charge causing a current to flow. Next we talk about conductors and insulators and why conductors conduct and why insulators insulate. Chapter 1 answers questions like, "what are the two things that must be present for current to flow?" And "what is it that can produce an electric field whose strength depends on the applied voltage?" Plus a lot of other interesting things about voltage and current.

Here is where we go into controlling the flow of electrons now that we have them moving and this means talking about resistance and then defining the ohm which is the unit of resistance. Next we talk about resistivity of different metals and supply a table with metals listed with their resistivity values. For example you see that copper has a value of 1 and it is used to compare different metals to. We move on to why resistors have two values, resistance and power.

In this chapter on capacitors we explain how a capacitor is made of metal plates or foil separated by an insulating material. Since the capacitor is really an open circuit no current can flow, or can it? We then proceed to explain that. The insulating material between the plates of a capacitor affects its total capacitance so picking a insulating material that can contain an electric field effectively is very important. I include a table of nine different common insulating materials and their 'dielectric constants' which is a measure of how well each contains the electric field.



At this point we have learned about voltage and current flow and how resistors and capacitors affect current flow in a D.C. Circuit, so now we can talk about inductance.Here I introduce the concept of induction. That is where a magnetic field moving through a coil induces a voltage in that coil. And how the inductor depends on current flow and magnetic fields that are changing to work. I explain in simple terms that if current increases through an inductor, the voltage produced inside the inductor, by thechanging magnetic field passing through it's windings, causes a current flow that opposes and tries to stop the original current.



Alternating current or A.C. is what powers the world today and there is good reason for that. The reason is in one word – transformers! In this chapter we also talk about the different types of common alternating current waveforms. Including the square and sine wave. We cover a lot about the important sine wave and voltages at varioustimes in the waveform. And we talk about frequency of waves from middle C on apiano to an FM broadcast radio station, they're all AC waves and they are all measured based on exactly one second in time.

Now that we have an understanding of alternating current, we can talk about putting it to use and that brings us to transformers. One of the most common transformers that you see and use everyday are power transformers. They can change or transform A.C. voltage to a value more usable for you. For example the one for your laptop computer that lets yourun on A.C. instead of using the battery. Or charge the battery when it needs charging.Transformers can step voltage up or down or both depending on how they are designed.You'll find transformers in use from power line frequencies up through radio frequencies.Understanding a little about transformers is important in an introductory basic electronics course.



Now with some of the hardware out of the way we can get back to our imaginary circuit that we used in another chapter only now we replaced the 12 volt battery with a step down transformer to provide 12 volts A.C. output. We now apply imaginary A.C. voltage to our circuitcomponents, the resistor the capacitor and the inductor and see what happens. First we find that the plain resistor circuit operates exactly the same as it did on 12 volts D.C. But we do notice things happening with the capacitor and the inductor circuit. They are acting just the opposite then they did before. This is where I introduce the effect of reactance in A.C.Circuits. I'll show you how to calculate the reactance of capacitors and inductors and how it changes with frequency of the A.C. waveform.



Wow, this is where it gets really interesting I even get to introduce to you ELI the ICE MAN. Are you ready for that? Impedance is what you get when you combine pure resistance with reactance. A.C. current and voltage will not stay in step or phase with each other and will lead or lag depending on if the circuit is capacitive or inductive. I explain all this confusion using simple terms in this interesting chapter on impedance.



Chapter nine is a great overview of transistors and diodes both old and new. We talk about both silicon and germanium diodes and transistors. We also talk about about a third type of diode that was at one time very common, but almost unknown today. We talk about how bipolar transistors are made out of two types of silicon put together as three separate layers and we'll talk about field effect transistors (FET) including JFET, MOSFET and other types. You'll also learn about a type of silicon diode that is used as a variable capacitor and a diode that is used as amicrowave oscillator and one that is used as a voltage regulator. Diodes can do all sorts of things!



THAT'S WHAT IS INSIDE BOOK ONE – NOW, HERE COMES BOOK TWO!

Book number two is where you start to put to use what you have learned so far. It's the Hands-On learning part! This is where things really start to get interesting.



In Section One: We Build Circuits With Series and Parallel Resistors.

In Section Two: We Learn To Build A Simple Light Emitting Diode Circuit.

Section Three: You See How To Build A Simple Transistor Switch.

Section Four: We Build This Unusual Visual Capacitor Charge-Discharge Circuit.
