In electronics, components
such as resistors, capacitors,
light-emitting diodes, and
transistors are used.
To understand how all of these
components work, you should
start by reading through the
descriptions below.
You will need something to hold the
electronic components in place while
performing the experiments.
In electronics, you usually work with a
base plate, sometimes called a breadboard
or simply “board.” The electronics board in
your kit will serve this purpose. It contains
openings for the contact clips and for
forming the circuit assembly.
You will be inserting the components into
these contact clips in order to connect
them to one another electronically.
