Electronics

Breadboard 

A construction base for prototyping electronics 

Resistors 

Restricts the flow of current through a particular path 

Jumper wires 

Wires that connect two points to each other without soldering 

LED 

A semiconductor light source that emits light when current flows through it 

Capacitors 

Device that stores electrical energy in an electric field 

Transistors 

A semiconductor device used to amplify or switch electronic signals and electric power 

Servo motor 

Mechanism that incorporates positional feedback in order to control the rotational or linear speed and position 

Dc motor 

Motor that converts direct current electrical energy to mechanical 

Diode 

A semiconductor device with two terminals, typically allowing the flow of current in one direction only 

Mosfet transistor 

A metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor used to switch or amplify voltages in circuits 

Optocoupler 

An electronic component that transfers electrical signals between two isolated circuts by using light 

Piezo capsule 

A device that uses the piezoelectric effect to measure changes in pressure, acceleration, temperature, strain, or force by converting them to an electrical charge 

Potentiometer 

A three-terminal resistor with a sliding or rotating contact that forms and adjustable voltage divider 

Photoresistor 

A passive component that decreases resistance with respect to receiving luminosity on the component’s sensitive surface.
