What Are Passive Electronics?

Components are broadly categorized into two types: active and passive. While active components, such as transistors and integrated circuits, can amplify signals or control the flow of electricity, passive components do not have the ability to control electric currents by themselves. Instead, passive electronics are the fundamental building blocks that manage and manipulate the flow of electricity in a circuit. These components are crucial for shaping signals, filtering noise, and ensuring the stability of an electrical system.
