Circuit Design
makerCircuit design is the process of creating electrical circuits by defining their components and layout.
expanded
Circuit design involves specifying the components and their connections to form functional electrical circuits, which are essential in devices ranging from small consumer electronics to industrial machinery. The process encompasses schematic creation, simulation for functionality, and physical layout considerations, ensuring the final product meets intended performance and safety standards.
examples
Designing a printed circuit board (PCB) for a microcontroller application involves selecting components like resistors, capacitors, and integrated circuits and connecting them to achieve desired functionality.
Commonly used in developing prototypes for consumer electronics, such as smartphones and wearables.
Creating an analog signal processing circuit requires the use of operational amplifiers and passive components to filter and amplify input signals.
Utilized in audio equipment and instrumentation devices to enhance signal quality.
