Think of this as an expert system for picking parts...

Almost everyone pretty much picks the same part for a purpose. With lots of practice, you can easily figure out what the 'most common' part is but it's always good to get some help along the way!

  * [[leds | LEDs]] - Everyone needs LEDs, either for indicators or illumination.
  * [[resistors|Resistors]] - Just your everyday basic resistors
  * [[caps | Capacitors]] - All sorts of capacitors, from 10pF to 1000uF!
  * [[vreg | Voltage Converters and Regulators]]- To get from one Voltage A to Voltage B
  * [[switches | Switches]] - Switches, slide toggle and buttons
  * [[connectors | Connectors]] - Jacks and header
