Electronics and Electrics

1. Electronics

   • Electricity is the physical phenomenon
   • Electronics is the study with which the physical phenomenon of electricity is controlled through active elements, in order to create new devices. The electronic circuit exerts a control over the flow of current in some way.
   • circuits have decision making (processing) capability
   • Electronic devices we use every day.
   • Electronic device controls the flow of electrons for performing the particular task.
   • It is defined as the device which uses the electrical energy for performing the work.
   • Metals like copper and aluminum are used for the conduction of current.
   • Convert the electrical energy into other forms of energy.
   • Alternating Current

2. Electrics

   • Electrical circuits have no decision making (processing) capability
   • circuit simply powers machines with electricity
   • deals with the supply and flow of power
   • Defined as a system that uses electrical energy to perform work.
   • The device which controls the flow of electrons for performing the particular task is known as the electronics devices.
   • Semiconductor material like silicon, germanium etc.
   • Uses the electrical energy for performing the particular task.
   • Direct Current
   • For amplifying the weak signal or for coding and decoding the information.
