Introductory Message

For the facilitator:

Welcome to the TLE Grade 8 Module on Electronic Products Assembly and

Servicing (EPAS)!

This Self- Learning Module was collaboratively designed, developed and

reviewed by educators from the Schools Division Office of Pasig City headed by its
Officer-In-Charge Schools Division Superintendent, Ma. Evalou Concepcion A.
Agustin in partnership with the Local Government of Pasig through its mayor,
Honorable Victor Ma. Regis N. Sotto. The writers utilized the standards set by the K
to 12 Curriculum using the Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELC) in
developing this instructional resource.

This learning material hopes to engage the learners into guided and
independent learning activities at their own pace and time. Further, this also aims
to help learners acquire the needed 21st century skills especially the 5 Cs namely:
Communication, Collaboration, Creativity, Critical Thinking and Character while
taking into consideration their needs and circumstances.

In addition to the material in the main text, you will also see this box in the
body of the module:

LESSON

TECHNICAL DRAWINGS

There are different types of drawings or diagrams to represent a certain circuit

in Electronics. Lines, symbols, and icons are used to represent a part, process, or
electronic components in a circuit. It helps in better understanding the connection
of between different components.

Various electrical drawings are used to highlight certain aspects of the system
but the physical circuit and its function still remains the same.

1. Block Diagram – a type of electrical drawing that shows the flow of process in a
circuit. It is easier to design for it uses boxes and arrows to show the process how
the components flow in a circuit. Here is an example:
 Block diagrams are made similar to flowcharts. The principal parts and
functions are represented by blocks connected by straight and segmented lines
illustrating relationships. The blocks are important points of interest in the system
from INPUT to OUTPUT.
How to make a Block Diagram?
1. Identify the System. Determine the system (sequence of components in a
device) to be illustrated. Define inputs and outputs. Know where the flow of
current starts to flow (input) and where it ends (output).
2. Create and label the diagram. Add a symbol for each component of the
system, connecting them with arrows to indicate flow. Also, label each block
so that is easily identified.
3. Indicate input and output. Label the input that activates a block, and label
the output that ends the block.

2. Schematic Diagram – a drawing of an electronic circuit that shows the

connections of components which are represented by symbols and lines. It helps in
showing the series and parallel connection between the components and the exact
terminal connections. Here is an example:

ResearchGate, Accessed August 4, 2020. https://www.researchgate.net/figure/The-schematic-diagram-of-the-power-supply-unit-is-shown-below_fig2_232503803

3. Pictorial Diagram – shows the visual appearance of the circuit in real time.
However, it cannot be used to understand or troubleshoot the actual circuit because
the terminal connections are not showed. It is not commonly used. Here are
examples:

4. IC Layout Diagram – refers to the internal design of a semiconductor

component. Also known as “IC mask.” It is made up of multiple layers or masks of
metal, oxide, and semiconductor material to form an “Integrated Circuit” (IC).
 It represents the geometry as well as the size of different semiconductor layer
and their connection. It describes the internal structure and are used in
manufacturing and designing integrated circuits. Here is an example:

ACTIVITIES

______1. Various types of electrical diagrams are used to represent a certain circuit.
______2. Technical drawings helps in understanding connections between
components.
______3. Block diagram is used to show the actual image of the components.
______4. Block diagram uses boxes and arrows to show the flow of the circuit.

______5. The boxes in a block diagram are important point of interest in the system
from input, storage, and output.
______6. Identifying the system is the first step in making a block diagram.
______7. Schematic diagram uses symbols to show the series and parallel connection
between the components.
______8. Schematic diagrams also shows the exact terminal connections.
______9. A pictorial diagrams is not advisable to used in troubleshooting an actual
circuit.

______10. IC mask is another name for IC layout diagram.

Part II: Below is a description of how a power supply unit works. Prepare boxes and
arrows and draw a block diagram of the circuit.

How a Power Supply Unit Works?

From the AC source, a step-down

transformer converts the 250AC into 12ACV. It
will then pass the 12ACV to four diodes (D1-D4
see the diagram) The diodes will convert the
12ACV into 12DCV and pass it to the capacitor. After then it will be received by the
transistor which will limit the output voltage to 12DCV unless a different unit is
used. If the power supply uses LM7805, then the output will be 5 DCV regardless of
the voltage given from the transformer. From the transistor, a LED will light up to
indicate that the power supply unit is functional.
