Electronic components are a general term for electronic parts and devices, forming the basic functional units of electronic circuits or equipment. They include resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes, transistors, and integrated circuits.
Based on function, they can be divided into passive components (resistors, capacitors, inductors) and active components (diodes, transistors, integrated circuits). Integrated circuits, which achieve complex functions through semiconductor technology, are considered the core components of modern electronic technology.
As the foundation of the electronic information industry, electronic components are widely used in 5G communications, new energy, computers, automobiles, and other fields.
Their development has driven the advancement of semiconductor technology. The first generation of integrated circuits emerged in the 1960s, promoting the miniaturization and high performance of electronic devices.
China is implementing the "Action Plan for the Development of the Basic Electronic Components Industry (2021-2023)," promoting key technology research and development and supply chain collaboration, and improving the industrial ecosystem through the construction of international trading centers.
