A circuit diagram (electrical diagram, elementary diagram, electronic diagram) is a graphical representation of an electrical circuit. A pictorial circuit diagram uses simple images of components, while a schematic diagram shows the components and interconnections of the circuit using standardized symbolic representations. The presentation of the interconnections between circuit components in the schematic diagram does not necessarily correspond to the physical arrangements in the finished device.
Unlike a block diagram or diagram, a circuit diagram shows the actual electrical connections. A drawing intended to represent the physical layout of the cables and connecting components is called drawing or design, physical design or wiring diagram. Circuit diagrams are used for design (circuit design), construction (such as PCB design) and maintenance of electrical and electronic equipment. In computer science, circuit diagrams are useful when displaying expressions using Boolean algebra.
