ABSTRACT

Just as the foundation of a new house is usually constructed before the rest of the house is built upon it, the basics of electricity must be studied first before attempting to study electronics. This chapter is a review on those basic aspects of d-c (direct current) that apply to electronics. By no means does it cover the whole d-c theory (for more in depth coverage of d-c, we recommend the first volume of this series: Electricity), but merely those topics that are essential to basic electronics.
