electronic terms reference
pull-up resistor
Resistor connected to output interface of the device, which is also conencted to the
VCC . The resistance of resistor should be 10kOhm. In the standard no-connected output device
- the interface has the VCC voltage - which equals HIGH LEVEL
pull-down resistor
Resistor, the same like pull-up resistor, but is connected to the
ground. The resistor should be 10kOhm. In standard no-connected output device - the interface
will have ground = 0V voltage - wich equals LOW LEVEL
Ground
The zero of the device - usually is the same as power source (-) polarity.
