 Basic Electronics Components
Terminals and Connectors: Components to make electrical
connection.
Resistors: Components used to resist current.
Switches: Components that may be made to either conduct (closed)
or not (open).
Capacitors: Components that store electrical charge in an electrical
field.
Inductors: component in an electric or electronic circuit which
possesses inductance.
Diodes: Components that conduct electricity in only one direction
Transistors: A semiconductor device capable of amplification.
