The proper selection of components in a circuit will decide the long-term working and also efficiency. Apart from the components selection, needs to be arranged as per the connections only. Otherwise, the circuit may get damaged or short-circuit.

The major factors to choose electronic components are listed below. Follow each factor to get ideas for component selection.

Factors to Choose the Right Components for a Circuit

1. Learn about Component Properties

You need to know how the components are working. The characteristics of electronic components are ideal. So you must have a clear idea about the proper working methods of tiny semiconductors.

2. Choosing Parts by their Operating Voltage

Most of the electronics components have their working voltage and maximum input voltage range. So need to verify the selected components are working within the range of the power source. Most of the IC chips have specific voltage ranges. So if you are doubts about component selection check its datasheet.

3. Manufacturer

Most of the electronic engineers don’t know the best manufacturer of electronic components. If you select check and low-quality components may lead to malfunction of your electronic circuits. So please check its company details and buy good quality components.

4. Keep in mind while Designing PCB

You need to keep this in your mind while designing PCB. The different components have different pin distances and pin holes so designing PCBs is based on the Components ‘ characteristics. Look at the data sheet and design based on the standard pinhole and pin distance.
