Electronics And Electricity Basics
If you are an absolute beginner to the wonderful world of electronics projects, start here.
Interested in creating an electronics or microcontroller project but have no idea how electricity works? This class is for you.
We'll cover the basic concepts associated with electronics and electricity: what a circuit is, what voltage, current, and resistance are, and how they relate to each other. We'll give you a primer in the basics for making electricity work for you.
This course is a fantastic first step prior to taking our electronics based courses, and an ideal baseline for anyone who wants to get into Arduino/Raspberry Pi projects.
We'll Cover:
- Build a circuit on a breadboard (and explain what those things are!)
- Learn about current, voltage, resistance, power, and how they relate to each other
- Cover the design considerations involved in creating basic circuits and using passive circuit elements.
