4 Objectives 1.Know basic electronics components and its function ( Res, var res, relay, transistor, temp sensor and light sensor) 2.Learn the electrical symbols. 3. Series and Parallel Circuits
5
5 Power Supply AC rating ( 230V, 110V, 415V) AC to DC power supply DC to DC power supply Batteries
6
6 Switches Samples of switches
7
7 Resist electricity Used to supply the correct voltage to the various components in an electric circuit. 1. Resistor (fixed and variable) Variable resistor
8
8 Task 1: Read the resistor value Write down the colour code Check the table State the resistor value

11 Voltage Divider 50K Voltage can be stepped down from 9 V to 3 V and 6V. By replacing the 10K resistor with a 50K variable resistor, we can vary the stepped down voltage. Va V1V1 R1R1 R2R2 I Or Va = IR 2
12
12 Exercise 2: a) Device A has a voltage drop of 2 V across it and needs to draw a current of 4 mA. Suggest a suitable value for resistor R. Device A R 3V Voltage across resistor = 3 – 2 V = 1 V V=IR 1 = 0.004R R = 250 Ω b) What is the circuit arrangement below called? If A and C are connected across a 6 V battery, calculate the voltage at B if the variable resistor is set to (i) 5 kΩ (ii) 40 k Ω 10 k A B C Voltage divider or potential divider
13
13 Electrically operated switch Coil of wire and a metal lever which changes the position of the switch. Advantage - permits a low voltage DC circuit to control a completely separate high-power circuit 2. Relay
14
14 Transistors have many uses including switching, voltage/current regulation, and amplification Two types NPN and PNP 3. Transistors
15
15 Decreases as the temperature rises (negative temperature coefficient or ntc thermistor) Increase in resistance with temperature. (positive temperature coefficient, or ptc thermistor) 4. Temperature Sensors (Thermistor)
16
16 A LDR varies it resistance according to the amount of light falling on its surface. Total darkness -1 MOhm In bright light - a couple of kOhm. 5. Light Dependent Resistor (LDR)
