Pamantasan NG Lungsod NG Maynila (University of The City of Manila) Intramuros, Manila

This document provides descriptions and symbols for various electrical and electronic components. It lists over 40 common components, such as resistors, capacitors, transistors, logic gates, and sources. For each component, it gives the symbol, a brief description of its uses or applications, and standardized symbol formats from IEEE and IEC. The document was submitted by Ervin James M. Aawitin for an experiment on familiarization of electrical and electronic symbols.
