What Are the Functions of Components in an Electronic Circuit?

[vmars]

Greetings;
I am just learning about electronics
Is there a site
that describes what each component in a circuit does
with arrows describing electron flow
and what it is doing along the way?
I need diagrams.

Thanks!
Vern

To what extend are you trying to get? You can always check out a library book.

Have a look at the thread I made above. It's got a book recommendation in it about electronics. The thread is the Interpretation of existing circuit one

Wikipedia is a good website for learning about electronics. And the book "The Art of Electronics" by Horowitz and Hill is an excellent beginning electronics book, and *well* worth the purchase price.

You sold it to me mate. As soon as funds are available I'm grabbing a copy

Check out my website "Free Engineering Online" (link in sig). There are many links in the electronics section. There is also some links in the 'Links" section that points to a free software simulator applet that allows to build circuits and simulate them. It also shows the direction of current, etc. Its great!
