Identify schematics, technical drawings, and flowcharts.

Identification should include

  • reading and verifying the symbols and legends used in schematics, technical drawings, and flowcharts
  • converting a schematic into a printed circuit board (PCB) layout
  • applying the interpretation of a flowchart to write a computer program
  • applying the interpretation of technical drawings to build or assemble a product or circuit
  • following electrical schematics to create a circuit on a breadboard.

Process/Skill Questions:

  • What does the term schematic mean?
  • When might technicians need to read flowcharts, technical drawings, or schematics?
