The Main Difference between Active and Passive Components
Active and Passive Commonest (Very Easy Explanation with Examples)
Active Component?
Those devices or components which required external source to their operation is called Active Components.
For Exampl? Diode, Transistors, SCR etc…
Explanation and Exampl? As we know that Diode is an Active Components. So it is required an External Source to its operation.
Because, If we connect a Diode in a Circuit and then connect this circuit to the Supply voltage., then Diode will not conduct the current Until the supply voltage reach to 0.3(In case of Germanium) or 0.7V(In case of Silicon). I think you got it
Passive Component?
Those devices or components which do not required external source to their operation is called Passive Components.
For Exampl? Resistor, Capacitor, Inductor etc…
Explanation and Exampl? Passive Components do not require external source to their operation. Like a Diode, Resistor does not require 0.3 0r 0.7 V. I.e., when we connect a resistor to the supply voltage, it starts work automatically without using a specific voltage. If you understood the above statement about active Components, then you will easily get this example.
