Electronics is the technology associated with electronic circuits and systems, and uses components such as capacitors, diodes, resistors and transistors. Electronics engineers research, design, develop, test and produce precision components and systems, developing the way electricity are used to control equipment. The work is usually carried out in cross-functional project teams, with colleagues in electronics and other branches of engineering.
Electronics touches on almost all areas of human activity, so its applications are diverse. They include acoustics, defense, medical instruments, mobile phones, nanotechnology, radio and satellite communication and robotics. Subfields of electronics engineering include control engineering, instrumentation, signal processing and telecommunications engineering, Electronics engineers work on a project through all its stages.
From the initial brief for a concept; through the design and development stage; to the testing of one or more prototypes; and through to final manufacture and implementation of a new product or system. The exact duties vary, depending on the industry, but tasks typically include: discussing proposals with clients, working with colleagues to design new systems, circuits and devices or develop existing technology, testing theoretical designs, and writing specifications, following defined development processes.
Systematically improving the detailed design of a piece of electronic equipment, ensuring that a product will work with devices developed by others, can be made again reliably, and will perform consistently in specified operating environments, creating user-friendly interfaces, ensuring safety regulations are met, project planning and preparing budgets, attending meetings with sub-contractors, writing technical reports, keeping up to date with developments in technologies and regulations.
