Electronics is a field of engineering that deals with the study of electrons and its appllications.
Electronics are used in everyday life,we use them to cook,wash,move to place of work,heat water.e.t.c.
They are use in manipulating, storing, turning, heating, lightning,cooling, moving,cleaning,calculating, learning and talking over far distance by means of electrons.
They are very important to mankind because they are all make life easier for us.Breifly electronics are machines that uses electricity to work.
Types Of Electronics.
1.Analog:
This types of electronics stores or displays information in form of signals and mechanical movement.
e.g. an analog wall clock displays the time by a mechanical moving needle thread moving on numbers.Analog devices are the oldest type of electronics.
2.Digital.
This is are modern type of electronics.They displays or store information in form of digits.They stores information in form of 1 and 0. 0 means off while 1 means on. we shall study how they store information and manipulate current on our the tutorial about semiconductors.
An example of a digital electronics is a modern.wrist watch,It displays the time with digits,on the LCD.
How are electronics powered?
Electronics are powered by electricity.
Electricity is the flow of electrons in a circuit.And the electrons are made to do work like turning,moving, lightning,storing data, switching etc.
Electrons are controlled by electrical components which help to utilize them to do useful work.
