Signal Processing Components can be as simple as transistors or even relais and mechanical switches, may be more integrated circuits like operational amplifiers or even dc motor controls, or are fully programmable microcontrollers.
They all are active components that take some input signal and process it in one way or another:
- Transistors
- Switches and Relais
- Operational Amplifiers (OpAmps)
- DC Motor Control drivers
- Logic ICs
- Microcontrollers
Grouping components is always arbitrary and biased. Voltage Regulators for example could also fit into this category. However, since power supplies (including voltage regulators) are a huge field with high importance for DIY Makers, anything related to power supplies is located in its own primary section.
Comments
Please do leave comments below. I am using utteran.ce, an open-source and ad-free light-weight commenting system.
Here is how your comments are stored
Whenever you leave a comment, a new github issue is created on your behalf.
-
All comments become trackable issues in the Github Issues section, and I (and you) can follow up on them.
-
There is no third-party provider, no disrupting ads, and everything remains transparent inside github.
Github Users Yes, Spammers No
To keep spammers out and comments attributable, all you do is log in using your (free) github account and grant utteranc.es the permission to submit issues on your behalf.
If you don’t have a github account yet, go get yourself one - it’s free and simple.
If for any reason you do not feel comfortable with letting the commenting system submit issues for you, then visit Github Issues directly, i.e. by clicking the red button Submit Issue at the bottom of each page, and submit your issue manually. You control everything.
Discussions
For chit-chat and quick questions, feel free to visit and participate in Discussions. They work much like classic forums or bulletin boards. Just keep in mind: your valued input isn’t equally well trackable there.
