Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / soujith.s
Active components can processing or amplifying an
electrical signals with th help of a bias voltage.
Eg Transistor, thyristor etc.
Passive components can't the above qualities. But these are
essential part of a faithfull result or processing with
active components.
Eg: Resistors , Capacitprs etc...

Answer / darshan patel
Active Components:
The components which have capability to
amplify the signal passing through them is known as Active
Components.
eg. transistors,op-amp,logic gates etc.
Passive Components:
The components which have not capability
to amplify the signal but they can store it in form of
energy are knows as passive components.
eg. Resistors,Capacitors,Inductors etc.

Answer / hlk.shubham
A/C: The electronic component which are capable of
amplifying or processing an electrical signal are called
active components. e.g. semiconductor, gas tubes etc.
P/C: The electronic component which are not capable of
amplifying or processing an electrical signal are called
passive components. e.g. capacitors & inductors etc.

Answer / santosh hosure
Active components are the one which itself acts as an energy
source or the one which doesn't require any external power
supplies
Ex transistor,op-amp etc
Passive elements are those which requires external power
supplies
Ex resistor,inductor,capacitor
Diode acts as an active as well as passive elements

Answer / amritha n nampoothiry
active components increase the power of signal and must be supplied with the signal and source of power example ,diode, semiconductor, transistor
passive components, capacitor,resistor and do not increases the power of signal

Answer / jaishree subramani
all semiconductor devices are active components unless its a
passive component.
examples for passive components are resistor, capacitor and
inductor.
examples for active components are transistor, fet, mosfet,
scr etc

Answer / sacchidanand teke
ACTIVE COMPONANT:-ACTIVE components increase the power of a
signal and must be supplied with the signal and a source of
power.
Examples are bipolar transistors, field effect transistors
etc. The signal is fed into one connection of the active
device and the amplified version taken from another
connection.
In a transistor, the signal can be applied to the base
connection and the amplified version taken from the
collector. The source of power is usually a dc voltage from
a battery or power supply
Passive Componant:-PASSIVE components do not increase the
power of a signal.
They often cause power to be lost.
Some can increase the voltage at the expense of current, so
overall there is a loss of power.
Resistors, capacitors, inductors and diodes are examples of
passive components.
Integrated circuits contain both active and passive
components.
Since they usually increase the power of a signal and
require a source of dc power they are treated as active
devices.

Answer / ashwini d.m
Active components which posses their own energy and impart the same to the other elements of the circuit.ex:emf sources
Passive components which does not posses their own energy and draw energy from the active element of the circuit. ex:resistance,inductance and capacitance.
