Printed circuit boards with a variety of electronic elements

Electronics is a technology for automation and the basis for modern information technology. For remote controlled explorations and during the setup phase of a settlement on Mars it is required for radio link and data processing.

I have 25 years experience in isrdntuial automation & SCADA/HMI/MODBUS integration.Want to get involved on the home automation side. How do I become a Control4 certified Integrator, Installer.RegardsStuart

Semiconductors

This is the modern kind of electronics. It allows ultra-compact devices with low power consumption, but it requires a hi-tech industry to produce the material and the structures. Since the material is damageable by radiation, it must be shielded carefully and has a limited wear lifespan depending on the intensity of the radiation. The electrical parameters are strongly influenced by the temperature.
