Jump start your journey with electronics! If you’ve thought about getting into electronics, but don’t know where to start, this book gives you the information you need. Starting with the basics of electricity and circuits, you'll be introduced to digital electronics and microcontrollers, capacitors and inductors, and amplification circuits – all while gaining the basic tools and information you need to start working with low-power electronics. Electronics for Beginners walks the fine line of focusing on projects-based learning, while still keeping electronics front and center. You'll learn the mathematics of circuits in an uncomplicated fashion and see how schematics map on to actual breadboards. Written for the absolute beginner, this book steers clear of being too math heavy, giving readers the key information they need to get started on their electronics journey. What You’ll LearnReview the basic “patterns” of resistor usage―pull up, pull down, voltage divider, and current limiterUnderstand the requirements for circuits and how they are put togetherRead and differentiate what various parts of the schematics doDecide what considerations to take when choosing componentsUse all battery-powered circuits, so projects are safeWho This Book Is For Makers, students, and beginners of any age interested in getting started with electronics.

    • Perfect book for a beginner
If you bought yourself a breadboard and couple of electronic components, maybe arduino even, watched dozens of videos on youtube but still struggling to put everything together in your head - this book is EXACTLY what you need. When you want to design simple maybe but your own circuits instead of buying DIY kits that will teach you no more than soldering you need to know basics about components available and how to use them. This book is about practical knowledge, bare minimum of theory and math. ... show more

    • A nice, tidy and understandable intro to electronics with practical application for the hobbyist.
A good basic review. Not too technical but enough so to keep interest if you love the science if building and fixing basic electronic gadgets. Well written. Comfort with basic math, mostly arithmatic will help. A good reference book for the electonics tnkerer library. You’ll want tovl keep it around. ... show more

book does start from very basics. as it goes further in it will start throwing useful formulas at you and give you a few challenges to apply the knowledge uou just acquired. one will need to be friends with math but thers just no way around it. book will train you how to understand schematics and will go in detail on each component present in it. 500 pages of good layed out information. strongly recommend. 1 recommendation to the publisher: I'd rather have the book available in spiral binder, that way it's easier to work with it since it's slso a work book and no way it should be shelf book. ... show more

    • Pretty cool!
This book's sample is pretty good in size. I like how the author tries to break things down and simplify. I am on page 80, I read through the sample first and decided to buy it.
