SALVILLA, SHIELA MAE D.

BET – MT 2C

SYMBOLS ELECTRONICS COMPONENTS DESCRIPTION

It is a two-terminal component,
that restricts the flow of current.

1. RESISTOR
It is a two-terminal component,
that is used to adjust the flow of
current.

2. RHEOSTAT
A potentiometer is a three-
terminal component that will
adjust the voltage flow in the
circuit.

3. POTENTIOMETER
Preset is a low-cost adjustable
resistor that operates by using
small tools like Screwdrivers.

4. PRESET
A capacitor is used to store the
energy in electrical form.

5. CAPACITOR
Stores electrical energy must be a
one-way round.

6. POLARIZED CAPACITOR
These capacitors are used to
control the capacitance by
adjusting the Knob.

7. VARIABLE CAPACITOR
These capacitors are used to
control the capacitance by using a
Screwdriver or similar tools.

8. TRIMMER CAPACITOR
A diode allows the current to flow
in one direction.

9. DIODE
SALVILLA, SHIELA MAE D.
BET – MT 2C

It will emit light when the electric

current flows through it.

10. LIGHT-EMITTING DIODE

Photodiode will convert light into
respective current or voltage.

11. PHOTO DIODE

The tunnel diode is used for very
high-speed operations.

12. TUNNEL DIODE

Schottky diode is for forwarding
low voltage drop.

13. SCHOTTKY DIODE

A P-type doped semiconductor
material is placed in between two
N-type semiconductor materials.
The terminals are the emitter,
base, and collector.
14. NPN TRANSISTOR
A N-type doped semiconductor
material is placed in between two
P-type semiconductor materials.
The terminals are an emitter,
base, and collector.
15. PNP TRANSISTOR
It will pass the current flow when
the switch is pressed.

16. PUSH SWITCH

It will block the current flow when
the switch is pressed.

17. PUSH TO BREAK SWITCH

It is an ON/OFF switch that

allows flowing only when the
switch is in ON.

18. SINGLE POLE SINGLE

THROW SWITCH (SPST)
SALVILLA, SHIELA MAE D.
BET – MT 2C

In this type of switch current

flows in two directions.

19. SINGLE POLE DOUBLE

THROW SWITCH (SPDT)
It converts an electrical signal to
a sound signal.
