I. Electronic Components Symbols

Symbol Photo Basic Function
The resistor is a non-polarized
component that means both sides
have the same polarity and can be
connected from both sides. The
value of the resistor is measured in
ohms (Ώ).

The capacitor is a two-terminal

component denoted by C. Symbol
of the capacitor looks like the two
parallel plates are placed in between
two terminals.
The diode is a polarized device with
two terminals and denoted by D. In
a diode, one terminal is positive
(anode) and another one is negative
(cathode). The closed side of a
triangle is the cathode, and the base
of a triangle is an anode

An inductor is a non-polarized two-

terminal component.

Any
Batteries

The motor is a transducer that

converts electrical energy into
kinetic energy (motion).

Generally, constant voltage sources

are used while working with
electronics.

Logic gates are the fundamental

building blocks of any digital
system. Logic gates have two inputs
and one output however, the
number of inputs can be changed as
per the requirement while the
output should be the same.
