What is Mechatronics?
• Mechatronics describes the synergistic
integration of mechanical , electronic ,
computer, and control systems.

APPLICATIONS (EXAMPLES) OF
MECHATRONIC SYSTEMS
4
Active and Passive Electronics
5
Resistors
6
Resistors (why do we need ?)
7
Resistors (value)
Types:
1) Polarized
2) Non-Polarized 9
Capacitors
Non-Polarized:
Polarized:
11
Capacitors (value)
Capacitance for smaller capacitors are
normally in pF.
If there are 2 numbers, then value is in pF.
If there are 3 numbers, then use 3rd digit as
multiplier 10x. (where x is 3rd digit)
If 3rd digit is “8” divide by “100” and if “9” then
by “10”.
A Letter code normally indicates tolerance as
shown in table.
12
Inductors
Stores energy as magnetic field..
13
Inductors (why do we need ?)
14
Inductors (value)
Small inductors values are in microHenry (H)
If there are 2 numbers, then value is in H.
If there are 3 numbers, then use 3rd digit as
multiplier 10x. (where x is 3rd digit)
If 3rd digit is “8” divide by “100” and if “9” then
by “10”.
If “R” appears in value, it shows decimal point
and there is no multiplier.
A Letter code normally indicates tolerance as
shown in table. 15
Passive Electronics (Circuits Analysis)
Simple equations allow us to determine, rate at which energy
is being:
1. Stored
2. Dissipated

Passive Electronics (Circuits Analysis)
1) Electron Flow (Classical Theory) Benjamin Franklin
(1750):
Electricity as an invisible fluid that flows from area of
excess charge (positive) to an area of deficiency
(negative) of charge.
