Electronics

Page with Electronics. Focused on beginners and learning. Math, tables, examples and tutorials.

  • Tables
    Subpages to this page contains different tables to use with designing and fault-finding with electronics.
    • E12 resistors
      E12 is a series of standard resistors. Values are logarithmically spaced to ensure uniform relative steps across decades. E12 has 12 resistor values within each decade. For more resistor values look at E24 series.
    • E24 Resistors
      E24 is a series of standard resistors. Values are logarithmically spaced to ensure uniform relative steps across decades. E24 has 24 resistor values within each decade. E24 has double the amount of values than E12.
    • Prefixes
      Prefixes are used to describe values from the very small to the very large. Pico, Nano, Micro, Kilo, Mega are some of the prefixes.
    • SI units for electronics
      SI units are the standardized units. The are the ones for electronics. They are the basic units.
