inductance of the leads is greatly reduced. The tabs are soldered directly to
pads formed onto the board, so that there are always tracks on the component
side of the board as well as on the opposite side. Most SMD boards are two
sided, so that tracks and components are also placed on the other side of the
board. Multilayer boards are also commonly used, particularly for mobile

Introduction If youve caught the electronics bug, youre ready to try all kinds
of projects that will help you develop your skills while creating weird and
wonderful gadgets. Thats what this book is about: providing projects that are
fun and interesting as well as helping you find out about all kinds of electronic
circuits and components. Electronics Projects For Dummies is a great way to
break into electronics or expand your electronics horizons. Here, we provide
projects that allow you to dabble in using sound chips, motion detectors, light
effects, and more. And all the projects are low voltage, so if you follow our
safety advice, no electronics folks will be hurt in the process. Why Buy This

Direct Current (dc) Electronics INTRODUCTION The advancement of science
and technology has brought about important changes in the field of
electronics. At one time, the field of electronics was very limited. Recent
developments in solid-state electronics and microminiaturization have brought
a number of significant changes. A person working in the field of electronics
must be knowledgeable about many types of systems and numerous control
devices in order to be successful today. Electronics is a very fascinating science
that we use in many different ways. It would be difficult to list all the ways that
we use electronics each day. Everyone today should have an understanding of
electronics. This chapter deals with a basic topic in the study of

Generation D--The Digital Decade The Urge to Be Connected Humans have an
innate urge to stay connected. We like to share information and news to
enhance our understanding of the world. Because of this, the Internet has
enjoyed the fastest adoption rate of any communication medium. In a brief
span of 5 years, more than 50 million people connected to the web. Today we
have over 400 million people connected and sharing information. In fact, in
2003 we exchanged 6.9 trillion emails! Thanks to the Internet, we've become a
"connected society." The Internet has created a revolution in the way we
communicate, share information, and perform business. It is an excellent
medium for exchanging content such as online shopping information, MP3 files,

DC Review and Pre-Test Electronics cannot be studied without first
understanding the basics of electricity. This chapter is a review and pre-test on
those aspects of direct current (DC) that apply to electronics. By no means
does it cover the whole DC theory, but merely those topics that are essential to
simple electronics. This chapter will review the following: Current flow Potential
or voltage difference Ohms law Resistors in series and parallel Power Small
currents Resistance graphs Kirchhoffs voltage and current laws Voltage and
current dividers Switches Capacitor charging and discharging Capacitors in
series and parallel Current Flow 1 Electrical and electronic devices work
because of an electric current. 1 10 DC Review and Pre-Test
