Electronics is the study of the flow of
charge through various materials and devices such as semiconductors, resistors,
inductors, capacitors, nano-structures and vacuum tubes. Although considered to
be a theoretical branch of physics, the design and construction of electronic
circuits to solve practical problems is an essential technique in the fields of
electronic engineering and computer engineering. This science starts about 1908
with the invention by Dr Lee De Forest of the valve (triode) Before 1950 this
science was named "Radio" or "Radio technics" because that was its principal
application. »» |
