Abstract

This chapter discusses various concepts and applications concerning components used in electrical equipment. Analog basically means a continuously variable signal. It means that the item being measured can be chopped up into infinite little pieces over time. Digital signals could be used to represent Boolean statements, one level indicating true and the other indicating false. The pros of digital are low power transmission and the ability to represent logic statements. DSP, or digital signal processing, refers to manipulating data that is digitized from an analog signal. In many cases, such as audio and video, the signal is converted back to analog after DSP occurs. Resistors are the most stable and predictable of the three basic components. Carbon film resistors have very little inductance or capacitance. It is rare that one will have a problem with this unless one is dealing with radio frequencies and high clock speeds.
