DEFINITION OF
ELECTRONICS

Electronics is the branch of physics

that deals with the emission and
effects of electrons and the operation
of electronic devices.
OR

Electronics refers to the science of

electrons emissions and their
behavior in semi-conductors.
OR

Electronics is the study of electronic

circuits and their applications.

The f!nctionin# of electric

components is based on the
behavior of semi5cond!ctors

The components are

mo!nted on circ!it boards
and are interconnected by a
cond!ctor

components are always
