A Beginner's Guide to Circuits

INTRODUCTION

This book will help you improve your electronics skills. I’ll teach you how to interpret circuit diagrams and use breadboards. Then I’ll show you, step-by-step, how to build a simple circuit on a breadboard. After that, you’re on your own: you’ll rely on parts lists and circuit diagrams to build your circuits. Building circuits from diagrams is an essential skill for anyone interested in electronics, from beginners to experts.

THE CIRCUITS

The circuits become more and more difficult to build as you progress through the book. Here’s a brief description of each circuit project:

• Project 1: The Steady-Hand Game With this super-simple circuit, you’ll create an Operation-style game where you need a steady hand to win.
• Project 2: The Touch-Enabled ...
