Note that components are sometimes characterized by their electrical characteristics ( resistor, capacitor... ) and sometimes by there use ( sensor ). This can mean that a component is listed twice, for example a temperature sensing resistor is both a resistor and a sensor. We are listing in alphabetic order, but remember components may have various names. | Note that components are sometimes characterized by their electrical characteristics ( resistor, capacitor... ) and sometimes by there use ( sensor ).
