100
This type of diode is used to protect circuits from voltage spikes
What is a clamping diode
100
this is the simplest gate;often referred to as simply an inverter.
What is NOT gate
100
The reading on an ohm meter reads 1k ohms.
What is 1,000 ohms
100
A volatile type of memory that computers have access to any part of at any time
What is RAM
200
the part of a transistor that will have an arrow on its schematic symbol
What is the emitter
200
The part of the diode that is generally marked for identification purposes
What is the cathode
200
This type of gate has two inputs and requires a minimum of one input to be on for the output to also be on
What is an OR gate
200
The reading on a meter reads 1M ohms
What is 1,000,000 ohms
200
An early type of chip that the CPU could only read information from
What is ROM
300
The 3 parts of this transistor are labeled base, collector and emmitter
What is a bipolar transistor
300
The diode is made of these two types of semiconductor material
What is P type and N type
300
This type of gate requires both inputs to be on before the output is also an on
What is an AND gate
300
the fourth band on a resistor indicating a 5% tolerance
What is a gold band
300
A type of memory chip that has a quartz window that allows the information to be re-written once it has been erased by a specific UV light
What is an EPROM
400
this type of transistor is often used in stereo amplifiers
What is FET or MOSFET (field effect transistor)
400
the voltage a typical silicon diode consumes in a circuit.
What is the forward bias voltage
400
This type of gate requires just one of the inputs to be on, but not both to achieve an output of on
What is an XOR
400
A resistor in a circuit capable of allowing 1 volt to push 1 amp through it without overheating
What is a 1 watt resistor
400
A type of memory storage device that has been popping up in luxury cars recently
What is a hard drive
500
This is the name of the control circuit on a FET transistor
What is the gate
500
This type of diode will conduct current in both directions once a certain voltage is reached.
What is a zener diode
500
This type of gate has an output of on unless any or both of the inputs are turned on
What is a NAND gate
500
The type of resistor used in most sensor circuits such as aTPS
What is a potentiometer
500
This type of memory chip can be both programmed and erased electrically
What is an EEPROM
