CapacitorsDiodes
Transistors
Capacitor
an electronic device which consists of two conductive platesseparated by an insulator
value, capacitance, is proportional to the surface area of theplates and inversely proportional to the distance between theplates
measured in Farads
Farads are big
usually microfarad (µF) or picofarad (pF) values are used

CapacitorsDiodes
Transistors
A capacitor’s voltage may not exceed the maximum for whichit is rated. Big capacitors often have low maximumvoltages.
Capacitors may retain charge long after power is removed.
For safety, large capacitors should be discharged beforehandling.
Place 1kΩ → 1kΩ resistor across the terminals to discharge.
High voltage capacitors should be stored with terminalsshorted.

Some capacitiors are unpolarized (like resistors);
i.e. they can be placed either way in a circuit.
Other types, (such as ”electrolytics”), must be placed in aparticular direction
(indicated by a ”+” sign at one end.)
Big capacitors (& 1µF ) are usually electrolytic.

There are several types of transistor; each is a three terminaldevice.
The most common types of transistors are BJTs and FETs.
Transistors are often used in voltage dividers to act as variableresistors.

There are several types of transistor; each is a three terminaldevice.
The most common types of transistors are BJTs and FETs.
Transistors are often used in voltage dividers to act as variableresistors.

BJTS are current amplifiers; a small base current controls amuch larger collector/emitter current.
You should always have a base resistor with a BJT!

FETS are voltage amplifiers; a small gate voltage controls amuch larger drain/source current.
Actually it’s the voltage between the gate and the source whichmatters.

FETS are voltage amplifiers; a small gate-source voltagecontrols a much larger drain/source current.
You do not use a gate resistor with an FET!
All FETs work in enhancement mode; some also work indepletion mode.
