Introduction: Passive Components

<^< Assignment: Fundamentals | Course Index | Resistors >^>(:nl:)

Passive components are components that cannot, by themselves, generate voltage or current. An understanding of the characteristics and application of passive components is an essential pre-requisite to understanding the operation of the circuits used in amplifiers, oscillators, filters, and power supplies.
