PREPARE AND INTERPRET TECHNICAL DRAWING
The electronic circuit is defined as it is a combination of various electronic
components that allow the flow of electric current. The electronic components
consist of two or more terminals, that are used to connect one component to
another component to design a circuit diagram. The electronic components are
soldered on circuit boards to make a system. If you want to focus on core side
projects like electronics/ electrical, you should know the basic concepts of
electronic circuit symbols.
Electronic Components and its Symbols
Circuit symbols are used in circuit diagrams which show how a circuit is connected
together electrically. They are used when designing and testing circuits, and for
understanding how they work.
Different Types of Electronics Wiring
1. Schematic Diagrams
Schematic diagrams show the flow through the circuit rather than the physical
layout of any equipment. Schematics can be used for general information about the
flow of the current as well as troubleshooting a circuit since they show wiring and
components using specific symbols that actually show the function of equipment
within the circuit; however, these symbols don’t look like the equipment itself.
Below is an example of schematic diagram of an audio amplifier.
2. Wiring Diagram
A wiring diagram is the most common, it’s concerned with the connections between
the different parts of a circuit or parts of an entire electrical system. Wiring
and equipment on the wiring diagram are carefully laid out to show the
approximate location of equipment in the circuit. The components within the
circuit are represented by a series of pictorials and these accurately resemble the
components within the system so they can be easily identified.
3. Pictorial
The least useful of the main electrical wiring diagrams is the pictorial diagram and
for this reason alone, it’s not commonly used. It makes no attempt to be an
accurate representation of the circuit but concentrates on the components in the
circuit.
4. Block diagrams
Block diagrams are used to understand (and design) complete circuits by breaking
them down into smaller sections or blocks. Each block performs a particular
function and the block diagram shows how they are connected together. No attempt
is made to show the components used within a block, only the inputs and outputs
are shown. This way of looking at circuits is called the systems approach.
ACTIVITY
A. Write the name of the electronic symbols.
