    Kirchhoff's circuit laws are two equalities that deal with the current and potential difference in the lumped element model of electrical circuits. They were first described in 1845 by German physicist Gustav Kirchhoff. This generalized the work of Georg Ohm and preceded the work of James Clerk Maxwell.

    Circuit component definitions and symbols

    Resistor

    Resistors are electrical components that resist current and expends voltage within a circuit.

    Battery

    Batteries are electrical components that provide electrical energy.

    Batteries have positive and negative terminals. The negative terminal is drawn with a short line, and the positive terminal is shown as a long line.

    Switch

    Switches turn the flow of current through a circuit pathway on and off. When the switch is open, no current flows because there is a gap in the circuit (Figure 3).

    When the switch is closed, the current can flow because the circuit is continuous.

    Node

    A node (or junction) is a place where two or more circuit elements join together. Figure 5 below shows a single node (the black dot) formed by the junction of five electrical components (abstractly represented by orange rectangles).

    DC circuit types

    Simple circuit

    A simple circuit contains the minimum amount of components that allow it to be a functional electric circuit: a voltage source εεε (battery), a resistor RRR, and a loop of wires for current III to flow around (see Figure 6 below). We usually ignore any resistance from the wires.

    In a simple circuit, the voltage supplied by the battery εεε is the voltage expended by the resistor R, and there is only one current I in the circuit.

    Closed-circuit

    A closed-circuit has a continuous pathway for current to flow through. In other words, there are no gaps in the circuit.

    Open circuit

    An open circuit has a gap in the circuit that does not allow current to flow through. The gap can be caused by an open switch, a broken component, or a broken wire.

    Short circuit

    A short is a pathway of zero resistance within a circuit (see the blue wire in Figure 9). When there is a short circuit, all the current flows across the short because the current prefers the path of least resistance.

  • Kirchhoff's Current Law Demonstration on Trainer Kit14:27

    Kirchhoff's current law (1st Law) is Current Law. KCL states that the algebraic sum of all potential drops and EMFs along any closed path in a network is zero. OR. The algebraic sum of the EMFs in a loop of a circuit is equal to the algebraic sum of the product of current and resistance in it. Mathematically, the loop rule may be expressed as  ∑E=∑IR.

  • Kirchhoff's Voltage Law Demonstration on Trainer Kit8:40

    Kirchhoff's second law, also known as Kirchhoff's voltage law (KVL) states that the sum of all voltages around a closed loop in any circuit must be equal to zero. This again is a consequence of charge conservation and also conservation of energy.

  • Basics of Electronics and Electrical Engineering

Description

Electronics' actual history began with the invention of vacuum diode by J.A. Fleming, in 1897; and, after that, a vacuum triode was implemented by Lee De Forest to amplify electrical signals. This led to the introduction of tetrode and pentode tubes that dominated the world until World War II.  The main difference between electrical and electronic circuits is that electrical circuits have no decision making (processing) capability, whilst electronic circuits do. An electric circuit simply powers machines with electricity. ... Most modern appliances use a combination of electronic and electrical circuitry. Electronics engineering is a branch of electrical engineering concerned with the uses of the electromagnetic spectrum and with the application of such electronic devices as integrated circuits and transistors. Electrical current, voltage, resistance, capacitance, and inductance are a few of the basic elements of electronics and radio. Apart from current, voltage, resistance, capacitance, and inductance, there are many other interesting elements to electronic technology.

When building electronic circuits, you will work with a number of basic electronic components, including resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors, inductors, and integrated circuits.


What are the electronic components?

  • Microcontroller.

  • Transformer.

  • Battery.

  • Fuse.

  • Relays.

  • Switches.

  • Motors.

  • Circuit Breakers.


Then we can say that a simple electronic system consists of an input, a process, and an output with the input variable to the system and the output variable from the system both being signals. There are many ways to represent a system, for example: mathematically, descriptively, pictorially, or schematically.
