| Abstract
|
:
|
The intent of this volume is to "help beginning inventors invent". The author provides readers with an "intuitive understanding of the theoretical and practical aspects of electronics in a way that fuels creativity". Offering 750 hand-drawn images that provide detailed instructions that can help turn theoretical ideas into real-life inventions and gadgets. It covers the field of electronics, from basics through analog and digital, AC and DC, integrated circuits (ICs), semiconductors, stepper motors and servos, LCD displays, and various input/output devices. This guide also includes a chapter on the latest microcontrollers
