Electrical Action Fuzing Flashcards
What color is traditionally the positive
Red
What color wire is normally the negative
Black
When working with LEFs and other resistors the longest leg is what
Positive
In capacitors the arrow points to what
The negative leg
What function do diodes perform
The allow current to flow in only one direction
In transistors and scr’s the base leg does what
Function the switch activating the transistor completing the circuit
What is the charge to an anode positive or negative
Negative
The utilization of a capacitor and a resistor is an example of what type of switch
Time delay
The difference between and transistor and an scr is what
A transistor is a momentary switch
An SCR is a latching switch and maintains connection until the circuit is broken
What do photo cells/ light dependent resistor (LDR) in a transistor circuit do
Detects the absence or presence of light and allows current to flow through the base leg, turning on the transistor
A 555 switch is what kind of switch
Timer
A 4020 chip is what kind of switch
Counter
What does IC stand for
Integrated circuit switch
What does a resistor and capacitor and a 555 switch have in common
They are both time delay switches
What are the indicators of a command device
Antenna’s
Servos
Battery packs
Braided wires
