So, I'm pretty handy with a soldering iron to put together stuff, but I have little to know idea of how to go about figuring out how to build a circuit. I mean, I know what a resistor does, and a ...

Simple Sound Processor presented here is an ultra-simple circuit module suitable for almost all basic electronics and microcontroller projects. For example, this module can be used as a front-end in ...

Early last spring, we featured a book review, as part of our occasional Books You Should Read series. Usually these are seminal tomes, those really useful books that stay with you for life and become ...

I learned some basic electronics in high school physics class: resistors, capacitors, Kirchhoff’s law and such, and added only what was required for projects as I did them. Then around 15 years ago I ...

This animation shows how pairs of dangling bonds can serve as atom-sized binary bits in digital circuits. Credit: Robert Wolkow/U. Alberta In the ongoing drive to make circuitry ever smaller and more ...

How do I learn circuit building and electronics on my Mac? If you want to learn about basic electronic components and how to build simple circuits, using your Mac as a learning resource, then you’ve ...

Team discovers fast, simple way to create two-dimensional electronic circuits that could potentially lead to a new generation of electronic devices. When Northwestern Engineering's Erik Luijten met ...

Most modern electronic devices consist of several key components: transistors, capacitors, resistors, inductors and diodes. Often, they are supplemented by additional components like crystals and ...
