A Beginner's Guide to Circuits
is the perfect first step for anyone ready to jump into the world of
electronics and circuit design. After finishing the book's nine graded
projects, readers will understand core electronics concepts which they
can use to make their own electrifying creations!
First, you'll learn to read circuit
diagrams and use a breadboard, which allows you to connect electrical
components without using a hot soldering iron! Next, you'll build nine
simple projects using just a handful of readily available components,
like resistors, transistors, capacitors, and other parts. As you build,
you'll learn what each component does, how it works, and how to combine
components to achieve new and interesting effects.
By the end of the book, you'll be able to
build your own electronic creations. With easy-to-follow directions,
anyone can become an inventor with the help of A Beginner's Guide to Circuits!
