    Study Notes

    • The term "electronics" originates from "electron mechanics", which is the study of electron behavior under different electric field conditions.
    • Electronic devices control the flow of electrons and are the primary components of electronic circuits.
    • The flow of electrons through a conductor generates electric current, which can be produced using batteries and generators.
    • The field of electronics comprises various branches, including digital electronics, analog electronics, microelectronics, nano electronics, opto electronics, integrated circuits, and semiconductor devices.
    • The first electronic component, the diode vacuum tube, was invented by John Ambrose Fleming.
    • The triode, a three-element vacuum tube capable of voltage amplification, was developed by Lee de Forest.
    • In 1947, Bell Laboratories developed the first transistor based on the research of William Shockley, John Bardeen, and Walter Brattain.
    • Jack Kilby of Texas Instruments developed the first integrated circuit in 1959.
    • Electronic devices play a significant role in daily life, with examples including computers, mobile phones, ATMs, pendrives, televisions, and digital cameras.
