Students examine the four factors that affect resistance of a wire: temperature, length, diameter, and the type of material from which it is made. A short quiz completes the activity.

This project gives steps to complete the activity.

Learners read an analogy comparing mechanical work (in this case, sliding a weight) to that of electrical power. The relationship of work, apparent work, and power factor is developed.

In this module, we'll be introducing you to SIPOC, a powerful tool that can help you improve your business processes. It's a high-level process mapping tool that helps you identify the key components of a process and how they relate to each other. SIPOC diagrams are often used in Six Sigma and Lean methodologies, but they can be useful for any process improvement initiative. We’ll explain the key SIPOC components and demonstrate how to build one. Then, we’ll walk through a few scenarios and let you build your own.

Learners view the operation of the 7485 integrated circuit magnitude comparator in this animated object. A quiz completes the activity.

In this animated object, learners examine the operation of a multiplexer and the function of the data input and selector lines. A brief quiz completes the activity.

In this animated object, learners examine the operation of a demultiplexer along with the data output and select lines. A brief quiz completes the activity.

In this highly interactive object, learners examine the internal elements of a 555 IC and their operation. Learners then test their knowledge in a variety of exercises.

Instructions on how to wire an integrated circuit are given.
