Summary

• Description:

  The PDF document comprises Grade 10 Electrical Technology Strand 4 Electronics Notes. The MS Word version is also available upon your request.

  The document covers the following strands, sub-strands, and topics:

  • Strand 4.0: Electronics
    • Sub-strand 4.1: Semiconductor Theory
      • Characteristics of Semiconductor Materials (Conductors, Insulators, and Semiconductors like Silicon and Germanium).
      • Covalent Bonding in Intrinsic Semiconductors (Crystal lattice, Holes, and Electrons).
      • The Doping Process (N-Type and P-Type Semiconductors).
      • Formation of the PN Junction (Diffusion, Recombination, Depletion Layer, and Barrier Potential).
    • Sub-strand 4.2: Semiconductor Diodes
      • Operation of a Semiconductor Diode (Anode, Cathode, and Symbols).
      • Biasing the Diode (Forward Bias and Reverse Bias).
      • Current-Voltage (I-V) Characteristics (Forward and Reverse Regions).
      • Types of Diodes and Applications (Rectifier, Zener, Light Emitting Diode, and Photodiode).
      • Diode Circuits: Rectification (Half-Wave Rectifier and Full-Wave/Bridge Rectifier).
      • Troubleshooting Diode Circuits (Testing with a Multimeter).
    • Sub-strand 4.3: Transistors
      • Introduction to Transistors and Construction of a BJT (Terminals and NPN/PNP types).
      • Transistor Operation (Water Analogy and Current Formula).
      • Regions of Operation (Cut-off, Saturation, and Active).
      • Applications (Transistor as a Switch and Transistor as an Amplifier).
      • Field Effect Transistors (FET) (Differences from BJTs).
