Step 8: Build Circuits Using Integrated Circuits But don’t worry too much about it, most explanations of this circuit are terrible. Note: If you can also understand how the Astable Multivibrator works, then you’ve come a long way. Now it’s time to learn to see how more complicated circuits work.Īfter completing this step – if you see a circuit diagram with a resistor, a capacitor and a diode connected in some way – you should be able to see what will happen with the voltages and currents when you connect the battery so that you can understand what the circuit does. Step 7: Learn How Diodes and Capacitors Behave in a CircuitĪt this point, you will have a good foundation of the basics, and you can build circuits.īut your efforts to learn electronics should not stop here. Soldering is fun, and it’s easy to learn.Īfter completing this step you should know how to make a good solder joint – so that you can create your own devices that look good and will last for a long time. In the previous step, you got an intro to how it works.
The transistor is the most important single component in electronics. Step 5: Get Experience Using the Transistor as a Switch
You should be able to look at a simple circuit diagram and think: You can get a basic understanding of each of these quickly, as long as you have good learning materials.īut take note of that last statement “as long as you have good learning material” – because there is a lot of terrible learning material out there.Īfter completing this step you should know how these components work and what they do in a circuit. The most common components you’ll see in the beginning when learning electronics are: You can find free circuit diagrams for almost anything online – radios, MP3 players, garage openers – and now you’ll be in a position to build them! Step 4: Get a Basic Understanding of These Components After finishing this step you should know how circuit diagrams work and how to use a breadboard to build circuits from them.
