An Introduction to Electronics Key Stage 3 RA Moffatt Live Wire / PCB Wizard / Control Studio / Crocodile Technology

"To Teach" is a somewhat meaningless term.   I cannot teach anyone anything; I can only HELP them to Learn something--maybe.   I can try to be an Enabler. To really Learn requires full participation by the Learner: "One can lead a horse to water, but can't make him do the backstroke." Also, and more importantly, Learning is NOT a linear process. No one learns in a straight line, logically or sequentially. I have only met one person who claimed to learn in a linear fashion; "he is feeling much better now," and will be released next September.

Assessment for Learning “Of the good teacher pupils speak respectfully saying ‘he taught me this’ or ‘she taught me that’. Of the very good teacher, they do not say this, instead, they say ‘we learned it all by ourselves.’” Lao Tse 600AD

WALT Electronics We Are Learning To To understand the concept of a potential divider which provides automatic switching of electronic circuits This is because .. We can learn how to design electronic circuits and systems using automatic switching for our project work Remember to: refer to the water analogy to help understand how the Potential Divider works

‘LED - off’ when Warm LED Light Emitting Diode Variable Resistor Transistor Thermistor

7 R1 = = 350ohms 0.020 V I R Calculation of the value of R1 It is most important that an LED has no more than 2V dropped across it. Also the current flowing through the LED should not exceed 20 mA. When the transistor switches on, the voltage at the collector is approximately 0V, between the top rail and the collector is 9V, so 7V must be dropped across R1. With 7V dropped across and the maximum permissible current of 20 mA flowing through the LED, the size of resistor can be calculated using Ohms Law. = 350ohms R1 = 7 0.020 V I R Resistor selected 470 ohms

The Electrolytic Capacitor Capacitor casing design + symbol Copy and simplify the sketch above and also explain using brief notes the function of the Capacitor?

+ Capacitors: What do they Do? A Capacitor stores electric charge. It consists of two plates separated by an insulator called the dielectric. The charge stored depends on the size of the capacitor and the voltage applied to it. The unit of capacitance, the farad, is very large and most capacitors you will use are likely to be measured in microfarads (F) and nanofarads (nF). Axial electrolytic capacitor + Radial electrolytic capacitor Polyester film capacitor Ceramic disc capacitor Non-electrolytic

Build the circuit as shown and time how long it takes the capacitor Voltage Out Ex 11: Time Delay Voltmeter Build the circuit as shown and time how long it takes the capacitor to fully charge? Check how long it takes Vo to reach two thirds the supply voltage = ‘time constant’

When the switch is closed, a current flows into the capacitor until it is full. If R is a resistor with a high resistance the current flows slowly, and if it is a resistor of low value the current flows quickly. Compare this with water from a tap filling a basin. The amount of water flowing into the basin is altered depending on whether the tap is fully open or almost closed.

Ex 11 (b): Capacitors Build the circuit as shown press and hold SW1 and test how long it takes for the voltage meter to reach 9V using:- R1 = 1K R1 = 10K R1 = 100K EX 9: Time constant (sec) = C (farads) X R (ohms)

Time Constant When the switch is closed and the capacitor starts to charge, the voltage output can be monitored using a voltmeter. To start with the voltmeter will show 0V, increasing to 9V when the capacitor is fully charged. A graph can be plotted of the voltage output against the time taken. The first part of the graph is almost a straight line, which then curves and tails off as it takes longer and longer to fill the capacitor. The time taken to reach two thirds of the supply voltage is called the time constant and can be calculated using the formula: Time constant (sec) = C (farads) X R (ohms)

A Timing Circuit using a Thyristor (41)

Micro-Switch Alarm: (80)

A thyristor is a semiconductor device which acts as a switch A thyristor is a semiconductor device which acts as a switch. However, when switched on it can only pass current in one direction. It is in fact a switchable diode sometimes known as a silicon controlled rectifier (SCR). Casing Design TIC106D

IH = Holding Current - minimum current required to maintain the thyristor in the on-state GVT = gate trigger voltage required to produce the gate trigger current

A Thyristor (silicon controlled rectifier or SCR) is a little like a transistor. When a small current flows into the GATE (G), this allows a larger current to flow from the ANODE (A) to the CATHODE (C). Even when the current into the gate stops the thyristor continues to allow current to flow from anode to cathode. It latches on.
